Checklist: Creating a comprehensive risk adjustment program for the new year

Health plans today face mounting pressure to modernize their risk adjustment strategies. With regulatory oversight intensifying and technology unlocking new possibilities, organizations must move beyond traditional methods and embrace a more proactive, integrated approach to stay ahead. As precision becomes the new norm with updates like CMS-HCC Model V28 and the increased scrutiny of health risk assessments (HRAs), the healthcare continuum inches closer to real-time data capture. As such, digital transformation and AI are bringing risk adjustment closer to the point of care. These advances reduce administrative workload and improve data quality, but they also demand thoughtful planning and execution. Consider an action plan as healthcare organizations continue to navigate the new reality of risk adjustment.
