AHA to NAIC Re: Recommendations for Updates to the NAIC Managed Care Plan Network Adequacy Model Act
We support the proposed rule. We applaud CMS for continuing to update CoPs for health care providers and to ensure that regulations are current, reflect the best and most recent knowledge about care delivery, and embody high expectations for quality of care.
The AHA supports the revised definition of a “plan,” which better distinguishes between a plan and a product line.
The AHA recommends that the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) require greater transparency in how states set MCO capitation rates.
