195.922 Seamless Conversion and Medicare Advantage Plans
The Medical Society of the State of New York will prepare a simple, easy to read modifiable model letter for physician members to provide their Medicare enrollees and a poster which can be downloaded for printing by physicians for their offices. MSSNY will work with appropriate stakeholders to collaborate with senior groups, including the AARP, to raise awareness among physicians and seniors on the implications of the practice of seamless conversion and to advocate with legislators and CMS to implement an immediate moratorium on the practice of seamless conversion. This resolution will also be submitted to the AMA for its consideration. (Adopted Council 9/15/16)
