GAO Report: Implementation of Requirements Aimed at Increasing Enrollment under Medicare Savings Program
U.S. Government Accountability Office [GAO] Sept. 16, 2012
34 pages. "Using data from the [CMS], GAO estimates that [Medicare Savings Program (MSP)] enrollment increased each year from 2007 through 2011. The largest increases occurred in 2010 and 2011 (5.2 percent and 5.1 percent respectively), the first 2 years that the MIPPA requirements were in effect. Several factors may have contributed to the higher levels of growth in MSP enrollment during these 2 years, including SSA application transfers and outreach, other MIPPA provisions related to MSPs, and the economic downturn. For example, while there are no nationwide data demonstrating the effects of the SSA application transfers, officials from 28 states reported that MSP enrollment had increased as a result of the transfers."
