What this bill would do

This bill requires the Secretary of Health and Human Services to publish detailed information regarding Medicare expenditures on the public website of the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services. Beginning in 2025, this data must be provided in machine-readable files and broken down by county, Metropolitan Statistical Area, and specific categories of individuals. It also mandates that the Medicare Payment Advisory Commission include a retrospective analysis comparing average expenditures for Medicare Advantage plans versus traditional fee-for-service Medicare in its annual reports starting in 2026. Additionally, the bill requires the public release of the methodology used for these analyses and allows for a public comment period. Finally, the Boards of Trustees of the trust funds must jointly include specific aggregate and average expenditure information for certain categories of individuals in their annual reports starting in 2026.
