Medicare is becoming more costly and beneficiaries are increasingly struggling to afford care. In 2023, 41% of callers to the Medicare Rights national helpline had questions about affording various Medicare costs, nearly double the percentage of callers who were primarily concerned about costs in 2012. With 54% of eligible beneficiaries enrolled in Medicare Advantage (MA) in 2025, with projections indicating this number will continue to grow, reducing MA costs and overhauling its financial structure are key to making Medicare sustainable.
The three new briefs in our Medicare Sustainability series examine how MA plans can overpromise and underdeliver in order to drive up enrollment and compensation to MA organizations.
