Despite broad partisan divides in health care for more than a decade, Democrats and Republicans recently passed bipartisan legislation to improve care for patients with multiple chronic conditions and to better integrate care for Medicare-Medicaid beneficiaries. Beginning in January of 2020, Medicare Advantage plans will offer a broad range of new non-medical benefits, such as food and transportation to those with complex care needs, and the Center for Medicare and Medicaid Services is making new opportunities available to states to integrate Medicare and Medicaid.
Please join us for the release of a new report that offers recommendations on ways to expand innovative Medicare benefits to improve care for those with complex needs, and a discussion on what’s next in chronic care.
Marc Cohen, co-director of the LeadingAge LTSS Center @UMass Boston, participated in the work group for the report.
