A Commonwealth Fund study explores what Medicare beneficiaries value about their coverage and highlights several key issues related to delays in care, primary care access, and other barriers to care.

The study reveals that a significant barrier to care for Medicare beneficiaries is experiencing delay in care. This delay often occurs due to the complexities of the insurance system and difficulties accessing primary care services. Beneficiaries report that these delays can impact their overall health and well-being.

The study emphasizes that improving access to primary care and reducing delay in care are crucial for enhancing the quality of Medicare coverage.

Complex Care Center offers a user friendly health home that focuses on reducing barriers to care. This includes offering same/next primary care appointments to Medicare and Medicare Advantage beneficiaries. Further, Complex Care Center offers on-site capabilities not generally found in primary care settings, which allows for patients to on-demand care for urgent and acute matters. This significantly increases the continuity of care and closes care gaps for Medicare and Medicare Advantage beneficiaries.
