Medicare Advantage Supplemental Benefits Transparency Act of 2026

The Medicare Advantage Supplemental Benefits Transparency Act of 2026 requires Medicare Advantage plans to submit detailed data on supplemental benefits to the federal government starting in 2029. This information will include specific details about what benefits are offered, eligibility rules, and how much each enrollee spends on these services. The Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services will then make this de-identified data available to the public and researchers for analysis after a two-year delay. To support the implementation of these reporting requirements, the bill appropriates $12 million for fiscal year 2026.
