Abstract:
Report reviews trends in benefits and premiums in Medicare+Choice (Medicare's managed care option) since 1999. The tables presented provide a first look at benefit trends in 2003. Much like in previous years, Medicare+Choice plans have continued to raise premiums and beneficiaries' cost-sharing, while at the same time limiting coverage of supplemental benefits such as prescription drug coverage.
