Expansion of the Medicare Advantage program during 2009-18 saw greater enrollment among racial/ethnic minorities and other traditionally marginalized groups. Growth was more rapid among Black, Hispanic, and dually enrolled beneficiaries than among White and nondual beneficiaries. The implications of greater heterogeneity in the program for enrollee outcomes are uncertain.
2009 年至 2018 年期间,医疗保险优势计划的扩大使少数族裔和其他传统上被边缘化的群体的参保人数有所增加。与白人或非双重受益人群相比,黑人和西班牙裔以及双重受益人群的增长率更高。该计划中更多样化对参保人结果的影响尚不确定。
