Medicare Advantage Penetration Continues To Grow – Opportunity For Facilities

Senior living facilities currently show that around 30% of their residents are enrolled in a Medicare Advantage (MA) plan.
We’ve been tracking this for years, noting that MA continues to grow across Ohio’s 88 counties.
Our most recent MA enrollment report shows that Ohio now exceeds 50% MA penetration in some urban counties and 40% in many rural counties.

For more on the ‘Tremendous Opportunity’ that facilities can find by educating themselves on their market see the article below.
