The Next Generation of Risk Adjustment: Policy Opportunities to Advance Reform

On April 19, 2023, the Duke-Margolis Center for Health Policy is hosting a webinar, “The Next Generation of Risk Adjustment: Discussing Policy Opportunities to Advance Reform,” to discuss recent changes by the U.S. Centers for the Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) to its risk adjustment methodology and future opportunities to improve the risk adjustment system.

This event, supported by West Health, will present an overview of the current risk adjustment system, including how it works and the challenges it presents to transforming our payment system, and will provide a brief analytical review of the recently proposed and finalized version of CMS policy reforms to risk adjustment. Additionally, the webinar will explore short- and long-term policy opportunities to the improve the risk adjustment system beyond those CMS has already proposed.
