Join Better Medicare Alliance on the afternoon of July 22 for an exclusive look at new research on the affordability protections Medicare Advantage delivers to seniors — followed by a rooftop reception overlooking the U.S. Capitol.

The event brings together policymakers, healthcare leaders, advocates, and researchers for a candid conversation about the cost pressures facing America's seniors and what the data tells us about the path forward. Hear directly from CMS leadership, explore original findings from our latest cost protections report, and stay for an evening of connection with the broader BMA community on one of Washington's best rooftops.

"This is where the collaboration starts. This is where I get different perspectives. Better Medicare Alliance is an umbrella for multiple stakeholder groups. There is a good cross section and a lot of unique insights at these events."

- Darwin Hale, Advocate Health Advisors
“Better Medicare Alliance events bring together stakeholders, idea generators, business leaders and advocates that have ideas that you may not have heard before and perspectives that are so important to how we all do our work. It’s an incredible forum. I get a lot out of it and I’m going to go back to my organizations with perspectives that are going to help us a lot.”

- Dan Lowenstein, VNS Health
