Medicare Demonstrations/Pilot Programs
Demonstrations are special projects that test improvements in Medicare coverage, payment, and quality of care. They are usually for a specific group of people and/or are offered only in specific areas. Some follow Medicare Advantage rules, but others don't. Check with the demonstration or pilot program for more information about how they work.
Pilot programs are for people with Medicare with one or more chronic illness. These programs are designed to reduce health risks, improve quality of life, and provide savings. For more information, visit www.medicare.gov on the web, or call 1-800-MEDICARE (1-800-633-4227). TTY users should call 1-877-486-2048.
