The Center for Medicare and Medicaid Innovation's Value-Based Insurance Design (VBID) Model team will host a Hospice Provider Webinar on November 9, 2023 at 3:00pm ET. To register for the webinar, please visit the registration page.

During this webinar, presenters will provide key information and policies for the upcoming Calendar Year (CY) 2024 of the Hospice Benefit Component of the VBID Model, including the recently released 2024 VBID Hospice Minimum Number of Providers Public Data Book. This document provides the calculated minimum number of hospice providers (MNP) at the Medicare Advantage Organization (MAO)-level for each participating MAO with a mature-year plan benefit package. Presenters will also provide an overview of the recently released Evaluation of Phase II (2020–2022) of the Medicare Advantage Value-Based Insurance Design Model. The findings of the report for the Hospice Benefit Component "at-a-glance" are also available.
