Hmm, this question is making my head spin. Maybe I should have stuck to studying the Medicare Advantage plan details instead of binge-watching that new medical drama.

A is just ridiculous. Of course managed Medicare can measure quality at the plan level, not just the provider level. What is this, the Stone Age?

I'm not sure about D - can the same performance measures really work for all managed Medicare plans? Seems a bit too one-size-fits-all.

B seems like a logical choice too, as a single system for delivering services can improve coordination and consistency.
