Summary
Medicare has launched a Member Rewards Program that provides financial incentives ($10-$100) to members for completing preventive care activities like annual wellness visits, screenings, and medication adherence. This creates opportunities for providers to encourage patient engagement in covered services while potentially increasing visit volume.
Action Required
Immediately: Front desk and clinical staff should download and review the Medicare Member Rewards tip sheet (PDF) to educate patients about available rewards. Schedule staff should promote rewardable services like annual wellness visits, A1C tests, eye exams, mammograms, and colorectal screenings when scheduling appointments. Update patient communication scripts to mention potential rewards for completing these preventive services.
