Medicare Advantage payers need to start paying attention to the health and economic status of potential new members when they turn 64.
Waiting until they’re 65 means missing out on the data that really matter, according to a white paper by Harvard Medical School and Inovalon, a Maryland-based healthcare analytics company.
MA enrollees have less money and face greater challenges in overcoming the social determinants of health (SDOH) than enrollees in fee-for-service (FFS) Medicare, Boris Vabson, Ph.D., one of the white paper’s co-authors, told Fierce Healthcare.
