Adapting Medicare Claims Repricing to Evolving Markets

There is a strong demand for Medicare Advantage plans. On average, Medicare advantage premiums have grown less than those in the marketplaces. It now accounts for about one-third of Medicare enrolment

Size of the Market:

Approximately one-third (34%) of all Medicare beneficiaries, or 22 million people, are enrolled in Medicare Advantage plans in 2019. Since healthcare risks tend to increase with age, the potential market is still larger and more motivated to enroll in comprehensive coverage with coordinated care (compared to the growth rate of 19 million in 2017). Medicare Advantage enrollees are stable, with few switching between plans. By managing their enrolees’ healthcare needs, payers can see potential returns.

Challenges:

Increasingly, healthcare payers who deal with Medicare and Medicaid claims pricing have to optimize and modernize their core administrative processes in response to the expansion of Medicare Advantage. They have experienced inaccurate and costly outcomes due to manual processes and legacy administrative systems.

Solutions:

A growing number of payers (TPAs, BPOs, self-funded employers, auditing firms) are embracing automated processes. Medicare claims repricing systems have now been identified as the best solution for processing Medicare claims repricing tasks and achieving accurate results. For improved ROI, they can stay compliant with CMS policies and rates, reduce or eliminate duplication errors, and ensure accurate claims pricing.
