From 2029 the score must be listed prominently on the directory
What the document says“``(F) Provider directory.--Beginning with plan years beginning on or after January 1, 2029, in the case of a specified MA plan (as defined in section 1852(c)(3)(C)), the accuracy score of the plan's provider directory (as reported under section 1857(e)(6)(A)(ii)) listed prominently on the plan's provider directory.''.”
Section 6220 adds a new subparagraph (F) to section 1851(d)(4) of the Social Security Act. From plan years beginning on or after January 1, 2029, the accuracy score of a specified MA plan's provider directory must be listed prominently on that directory.
What the document actually says“``(F) Provider directory.--Beginning with plan years beginning on or after January 1, 2029, in the case of a specified MA plan (as defined in section 1852(c)(3)(C)), the accuracy score of the plan's provider directory (as reported under section 1857(e)(6)(A)(ii)) listed prominently on the plan's provider directory.''.”
From plan year 2029 the score must sit on the doctor list itself. It must be easy to see.
A score buried on an agency website helps few people. On the list itself, the reader sees it while using the list.
