Requires Medicare Advantage plans to share detailed data on extra benefits, helping researchers and the public.
This bill would make Medicare Advantage plans share more detailed information about the extra benefits they offer. It would require plans to report how enrollees use these benefits and what they cost. This new data would then be made public and available to researchers, helping everyone better understand these plans.
Today, Medicare Advantage plans are not specifically required to share detailed, person-by-person information about the extra benefits they offer, like dental, vision, or gym memberships. This makes it difficult for the public and researchers to see how these benefits are actually used and what they cost. If this bill becomes law, starting in 2029, Medicare Advantage plans would have to report this detailed data to the government. About two years later, this information would be made public and available for research, helping everyone get a clearer picture of these supplemental benefits.
