FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
Managed Care On-Line™ enters into distribution agreement with Health Strategy Resources
Modesto, CA - Managed Care On-Line™ members and web site visitors can now order Health Strategy Resources’ Medicare and Medicaid Enrollment Newsletters from the MCOL’s Store web site.
"MCOL is pleased to offer MCOL members and web site visitors Health Strategy Resources’ Medicare and Medicaid Enrollment Newsletters" stated Claire Bollier Thayer, MCOL Director of Research and Development. "These Medicare HMO enrollment newsletters are available by state, county, and health plan. In addition, California Medi-Cal managed care enrollment newsletters are available by county and health plan" commented Gary Koehler, Principal, Health Strategy Resources.
The Medicare HMO reports provide county specific information for applicable state of choice, with enrollment for each health plan licensed to operate under Medicare+Choice in that county, detailed by quarter for a full year. The report summarizes aggregate enrollment growth by county, provides information on the total number of eligible Medicare beneficiaries in each county, and the percentage of the Medicare eligible population enrolled in an HMO (i.e. managed care market share). The reports can be a vital part of strategic planning and the development of a provider sponsored organization (PSO). The reports include all managed care entities licensed by the Health Care Financing Administration in each county, and as a result, will include all new PSOs and other managed care products which may become available under the new Medicare+Choice program. As a result, the reports also provide valuable competitive information.
