Medicare Advantage Cost Transparency Act
To amend title XVIII of the Social Security Act to require the inclusion of certain information in Medicare Advantage encounter data.
This bill, HB9392, proposes to update Medicare Advantage plans by requiring more detailed information to be included in the data used for measuring patient encounters. This means that the information used to understand and manage patient care in these Medicare Advantage plans will be more comprehensive and transparent. The goal is to help patients and healthcare providers make better-informed decisions.
The bill would affect anyone enrolled in a Medicare Advantage plan, including seniors and people with disabilities, by ensuring they have access to clearer and more complete data about their healthcare services. This could potentially lead to more effective healthcare management and cost savings.
HB9392 was introduced on June 23, 2026, and has been referred to the Subcommittee on Health and the Committee on Ways and Means. As of June 25, 2026, the bill has been considered by the subcommittee, and it was forwarded to the full committee by a voice vote. This means the bill is moving forward in the legislative process for further review and potential amendments.
