Litigation Content
Why This Matters:
Medicare Advantage organizations allege that the defendants miscalculated the 2024 star rating for their Medicare Advantage plans and unlawfully terminated these plans in violation of the Administrative Procedure Act. Star ratings, which are designed to assess a plan’s quality, affect whether a plan is eligible for the Medicare Advantage program and whether the plan can receive bonus payments.
Potential Impact:
Medicare beneficiaries seeking information about Medicare Advantage plans rely on federal star ratings. Ensuring that these ratings are accurate and not inflated helps beneficiaries find affordable plans and avoid unnecessary expenses.
