The Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services this week released final Medicare Advantage data on services provided to beneficiaries in calendar year 2015. Researchers who sign a CMS data use agreement can use the information to help drive innovation and improve care for patients in private Medicare health plans, the agency said. CMS began making the data available to researchers last year.
