While Medicare’s Quality Ratings are not new, successful management of the program does require a new perspective on the “same old same old.” For payers, there is revenue and competitive positioning at stake. For their provider partners, the Medicare Advantage Star program provides a testing ground for their own quality improvement activities as their entire system of health care orients itself towards value-based purchasing.

The CY 2012 Draft CMS Call Letter issued in February made clear that despite the turmoil at the top at CMS, the agency is committed to expanding the Star Ratings and changing the methodology with great impact on health plans.

Two of the industry’s leading authorities on the CMS Star Ratings system from Gorman Health Group will provide an overview tailored for both plans and their provider partners. Join us for a webinar discussion that will blend updates to the Star Ratings program with practical tips for quality improvement within your plan.
