An engaged partnership between health plans and providers is vital to financial success and ensuring beneficiaries receive valuable benefits.
Risk adjustment is much more than a regulatory requirement for Medicare Advantage plans. Not only does it have a significant financial impact, but it can also improve the quality of care by providing an accurate picture of each member’s health status and ensuring each member receives the right interventions and treatment. Providers play an important role in risk adjustment, too.
Hassan Rifaat, MD, CEO of Vatica Health, joined Bright Spots in Healthcare on June 23 at 12 p.m. ET for a webinar alongside key leaders in payer and provider organizations.
