But angling for higher rates could become increasingly difficult for providers. UnitedHealthcare, Humana and Aetna have warned that higher Medicare Advantage costs could impact profitability this year as enrollment increases and they face a potential 0.16% cut to their base payment in 2025 from CMS.
“These companies really need to focus on their own costs which includes their contracting with providers,” said Scott Fidel, managing director at Stephens.
Humana would not discuss its rate negotiations with providers, but said in an email it works “closely and collaboratively with a wide range of home health agencies to arrive at mutually beneficial agreements to provide home-based care for Medicare Advantage members."
