Medicare Advantage plans would put more money into basic benefits in some areas.
This bill would set a minimum payment level for Medicare Advantage plans in certain areas, starting in 2026. It would also require these plans to use at least half of any increased payments to improve basic health benefits for enrollees.
Today, the geographic adjustment for Medicare Advantage payments can fall below 0.70. Also, there's no rule for how plans must use increased payments. If this bill passes, the geographic adjustment would never be less than 0.70. Plans would also have to use at least 50% of any resulting payment increase for basic health benefits, starting in 2026.
