The increase is actually less than the 1.6% proposed last February by the federal agency.
The proposed changes came as a response last year for agencies to save government money and bring the rates closer to traditional paid-for service providers. Medicare Advantage plans was found to be efficient and provides better quality services at a rate less costly than traditional providers.
