A common q is which states are poised to "do better" and not lose lots of people during Medicaid unwind

No clear answer but 1 good metric is a high % of renewals that are automated

Just 4 states have 75%+ AZ, NC, OR, WA

Medicare Advantage-@drmeenasesh reflects: where can CMS partner with MA plans to innovate, drive value? Recent initiatives: having all MA plans report more detail on supplemental benefit spending, and proposing #DSNPs must survey members on patient social needs. #hcvalueweek

[Kalin Scott @KalinScot]

3 major focuses on @MedicareGov value-based models: alignment, growth, equity. @drmeenasesh: in partnership with @CMSinnovates, a strong focus on alignment will be key between FFS and Medicare Advantage models - to reduce burden on providers, and enable success. #hcvalueweek
