“COVID-19 Could Increase Seniors’ Rapid Disenrollment in Medicare Advantage”

COVID-19 Could Increase Seniors’ Rapid Disenrollment in Medicare Advantage,” by Bailey Bryant, Home Health Care News

Quote:

“There’s a lot of speculation about what the coronavirus will mean for the Medicare Advantage industry, especially as it relates to home-based care. Some believe it could mean more MA opportunities for at-home care providers in 2021 — or even sooner, as CMS recently announced that plans can provide mid-year benefit enhancements in response to the COVID-19 outbreak. Meanwhile, others worry it could hinder home care opportunities in the space.”

LTC Comment (from Stephen A. Moses, President, Center for Long-Term Care Reform):

MA virus quandary.
