WASHINGTON, D.C. – (July 30, 2024) – Medicare Advantage (MA) outperformed fee-for-service (FFS) Medicare in 9 out of 10 quality measures focused on preventive and chronic disease care for seniors and people with disabilities, a new AHIP report shows.
“Medicare Advantage continues to outperform FFS Medicare on preventive care and chronic care, all while saving seniors more than $2,500 a year. The compelling combination of better care at lower costs is why 33 million Medicare beneficiaries have chosen Medicare Advantage,” said Mike Tuffin, AHIP President and CEO.
The report compared performance results for 10 Healthcare Effectiveness Data and Information Set (HEDIS) measures in FFS Medicare and MA in 2021.
