Equity & Timely Access as a Stars Strategy
Industry leaders from MetroPlusHealth, Network Health, Priority Health and ReferWell discuss strategies to advance health equity and improve care access to achieve higher Star Ratings. As health equity initiatives play an increasingly important role in CMS programs, Medicare Advantage plans must commit to addressing social factors hindering access to care and driving members to take action to improve their health, such as scheduling a preventive care visit or completing a missed screening.
Topics include:
-
Creating a true health equity strategy
-
Using a personalized approach to reaching the unreachable members
-
Creating a trustworthy, comfortable approach to care access
-
Navigation and scheduling
-
Partnering with CBOs
