Webinar: Medicare Advantage: Past, Present, and Future

Medicare Advantage (MA) plans, offered by private health insurers as an alternative to traditional Medicare Fee-for-Service, now cover more than half of all Medicare beneficiaries—over 34 million people in 2025. Experts will trace the program’s history, discuss oversight and market trends, and offer insights on the policy debates likely to shape the next phase of Medicare Advantage. The session will blend historical perspective with timely analysis and include an interactive Q&A to clarify common questions and misconceptions.
