**WASHINGTON DC USA -- MARCH 27, 2023**: The Virtual Fourth National
Medicare Advantage Summit will take place on April 25-28, 2023 as a
purely virtual event. Upon consultation with the Summit planning
committee, the decision was made to offer the Summit as a virtual event
again in 2023 because the majority of health care providers are in
significant financial distress as they emerge from the pandemic and are
facing staffing shortages and expense increases and supply chain
challenges.
