Medicare Stars Improvement

AArete’s Medicare Stars Improvement solutions offer targeted support to achieve your near- and long-term Stars program goals. Our experts partner with your organization to support you throughout your Stars journey, from current state assessments through complex, cross-functional improvement initiative implementations.

OUR APPROACH

AArete conducts thorough current-state assessments using tailored analytics, identifying short-term quick wins, and long-term opportunities that position you as a market leader. Our assessments are comprehensive, touching each aspect of your plan that influences your Star Ratings, including but not limited to: reporting and analytics capabilities, organizational governance structure, member experience (CAHPS), provider incentive programs, and vendor performance. 

AArete’s experts partner with your teams to create or enhance a sustainable, market leading Stars program based on assessment findings. We work alongside your team through key program areas such as: initiative scorecards and outcomes tracking, scenario analysis and goal setting, targeted initiative identification and support, and creating both operational- and executive-level dashboards.

Compliance

AArete knows cross-functional collaboration is key to breaking down organizational silos and creating shared accountability for compliance. Our experts center strategies on improving high-impact areas including network management, care coordination, and member experience. We perform in-depth gap analyses comparing your plan’s historical and current performance against today’s standards and guidelines in order to identify organizational strengths and weaknesses.

Measurement

The ability to identify barriers and close gaps in preventative care and member satisfaction relies on a comprehensive understanding of the challenges members face. AArete pairs your plan’s available clinical performance and consumer experience data (e.g., HRAs, claims, surveys, grievance submissions, etc.) with our market intelligence and incorporates state and national benchmarking to identify areas of opportunity. Those findings inform actionable strategies to demonstrate your commitment to quality through HEDIS and CAHPS ratings.
