Download Gorman Health Group’s expert summary of the 2015 Final Rate Announcement from CMS

John Gorman predicted that -- if the rate announcement was enacted as outlined in the draft call letter -- it would be "just about a worst-case scenario for flabby, distracted, uncommitted health plans in Medicare."  John declared "there is no question that the 2015 call letter is an evolutionary event and some inferior species will be eliminated."

Now that the Final Rate Announcement has been released we can finally get some concrete answers. Gorman Health Group's renowned financial and policy experts Bill MacBain and Jean LeMasurier are teaming up to provide a detailed analysis and summary of the final regulation.

While Jean and Bill are finalizing the Summary of the Final Call Letter, you can request a copy and we will notify you as soon as it is ready.  But while you wait, enjoy access to some additional resources.  Request a copy of the Summary here.

As an added bonus, Bill and Jean will also be hosting a complimentary webinar today from 2:00PM – 3:30PM to offer insight on the Final Rate Announcement from CMS. You will walk away from this session with critical to-do items and issues to tackle in order to ensure your success in 2015 and beyond.
