WASHINGTON – AHIP President and CEO Mike Tuffin issued the following statement today following the release of the final Medicare Advantage and Part D rate notice by the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS):
“Medicare Advantage is vital to the health and wellbeing of 34 million Americans, who count on the program for better care and protection from steadily rising medical costs. As health plans review the new policies released in the last two days, they will continue to focus on helping seniors stay healthy, closing gaps in care and supporting those with chronic illness.”
