Call For Forefront Submissions
Health Affairs is launching a Forefront Series, “Supplemental Benefits in Medicare Advantage.”
Funded by The SCAN Foundation, the series will feature policy analysis, policy proposals, and commentary to inform the rapidly changing policy landscape on this topic.
Supplemental benefits in Medicare Advantage are available to beneficiaries in plans that propose premiums set below a CMS target. These plans receive rebates from CMS, which Medicare Advantage plans use to fund extra benefits.
We are seeking article submissions ([link removed] ) from all perspectives on the topic, including but not limited to:
- Member challenges in understanding and accessing benefits
- MA plan perspectives on meeting the new CMS requirements for collecting encounter data
- Community organization challenges to deliver services
- State issues in coordinating Medicaid and MA supplemental benefits
- Impact of rebate-reducing legislation on availability of supplemental benefits
- How these benefits may fill gaps in long-term services and supports
We have a particular interest in articles that use an equity lens and explore how these benefits can enable older adults to thrive in their homes and communities.
Submissions will be considered on a rolling basis until June 30, 2025.
