Modern Healthcare: MedPAC Backs Changes To Program For Dual-Eligibles
Medicare's advisory panel recommended several changes that aim to improve and expand a small program for some of the highest-cost beneficiaries in the program. The Medicare Payment Advisory Commission voted unanimously on Thursday for a series of changes to the Program of All-Inclusive Care for the Elderly, which is for facilities that provide daylong care to about 21,000 of the high-cost dual-eligible beneficiaries (Daly, 11/3).
