Description

Hospice has historically been a traditional Medicare benefit ONLY. Participating Medicare Advantage Organizations (MAO) will have Hospice included in their benefit packages throughout the 4-year demonstration. It is expected that additional MAOs will be added to the demonstration as it progresses. Hospices need to understand key elements of working with MAO plans that are a part of the demonstration and this session will greatly assist. This session will take hospices through key elements of the MA Demonstration, including who is participating and how implementation has progressed.
