The U.S. Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) plans to increase payments to Medicare Advantage plans for 4.3%
So dollars in for MAPD plans and Non-commissionable MAPD plans for agents?
CMS expects to spend $9.2 trillion on MA payments to plans during the next 10 years — $1.3 trillion of those dollars represent rebates used for MA supplemental benefits and premium buy-downs. Without the proposed updates, CMS would make an estimated $10.4 billion in additional payments in 2026 that the agency has called "not necessary to support stability in the program."
