KEYNOTE PANEL DISCUSSION:  Maximizing Star Ratings -- Strategies for Today and Tomorrow

CMS star ratings took center stage during the recent annual enrollment period, as beneficiaries increasingly rely on the ratings to select their plan.  Coupled with the new quality bonus system – the number of stars a plan has will directly impact not only ability to increase market share, but also to increase profitability through bonus payments.  And most importantly, increasing your stars means improving patient outcomes as well as your bottom line.

  • Understanding the metrics and measures
  • Improving ratings
  • How will the measures change and evolve?
