Although private health plans were originally envisioned in the 1980s as a potential source of Medicare savings, such plans have generally increased program spending. In 2006, Medicare paid $59 billion to Medicare Advantage (MA) plans -- an estimated $7.1 billion more than Medicare would have spent if MA beneficiaries had received care in Medicare fee-for-service (FFS). MA plans receive a per member per month payment to provide services covered under Medicare FFS. For this testimony, the author examined MA plans¿: (1) projected allocation of rebates; (2) projected cost sharing; and (3) projected revenues and expenses. Charts and tables.

In 2006, the fed. govt. spent $59 billion on Medicare Advantage (MA) plans, an alternative to the original Medicare fee-for-service (FFS) program. Although health plans were originally envisioned as a source of Medicare savings, such plans have generally increased program spending. Payments to MA plans have been estimated to be 12% greater than what Medicare would have spent in 2006 had MA beneficiaries been enrolled in Medicare FFS. This report examines for 2007: (1) MA plan¿s projected rebate allocations; (2) additional benefits MA plans commonly covered & their costs; (3) MA plans¿ projected cost sharing; & (4) MA plans¿ allocation of projected revenues and expenses. Tables and graphs.
