Leading Through Change: Strategies for a New Star Ratings Era

Senior Medicare Advantage leaders discuss what's working — and what's not — as plans navigate one of the most consequential Stars recalibrations in years.
‍

The stakes for MA plans have shifted. Triple-weighted Controlling Blood Pressure (CBP) measures now carry more weight on Stars scores than almost anything else, and plans that move early on medication adherence and blood pressure control are separating from the pack. This session breaks down how — with real examples from clinical and operational leaders who are doing the work.

‍What this session covers:

• How triple-weighted CBP measures are reshaping Stars strategy for 2026 and beyond
• Why medication adherence is the most direct lever plans have right now
• What high-performing plans are doing differently to drive BP control at scale
• How to connect population health investment to Stars outcomes your finance team will recognize
