An $8 billion Medicare demonstration program being carried out by the Obama administration is poorly designed and should be canceled, the nonpartisan Government Accountability Office (GAO) said.
The program is designed to reward the highest-quality Medicare Advantage plans, but instead pays out most of its award money to mediocre plans, according to a report released Monday.
In 2011, about one-quarter of all Medicare beneficiaries were enrolled in Medicare Advantage (MA) plans, which are run by private insurers. The plans tend to offer additional benefits -- such as dental coverage -- not included in traditional Medicare plans.
Instead of continuing with the ineffective "MA Quality Bonus Payment Demonstration," which began this year, the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) should revert to the Medicare Advantage bonus plan that was passed in the Affordable Care Act, GAO investigators concluded.
Rather than implement the plan laid out in the ACA, CMS announced it would conduct the MA Quality Bonus Payment Demonstration, which would extend bonuses to plans with three or more stars, and increase the size of the bonuses, according to a letter GAO investigators sent to Sen. Orrin Hatch (R-Utah), who requested the report.
"Rather than rewarding only high-performing plans, most of the additional payments made under the demonstration will accrue to average-performing plans," the GAO investigators wrote, concluding it is "unlikely that the demonstration will produce meaningful results."
GAO also pointed to the size and cost of the demonstration. It "dwarfs all other Medicare demonstrations" conducted in the past 12 years in its cost, and is larger in size and scope than many past demonstration projects.
Hatch said the GAO findings show that HHS "abused its authority by creating what isn't really a demonstration program at all."
"The Obama administration launched this demonstration program to divert attention away from cuts to the popular Medicare Advantage program," Hatch said in a press release. "The Obama administration seems to be using a technicality to side step Congress and write itself a blank check to spend more money for political purposes leading into this year's elections. This is simply unacceptable."
