21 PagesEXECUTIVE SUMMARY Inovalon Data Solutions team conducted a retrospective observational analysis to examine differences in healthcare outcomes among Medicare beneficiaries enrolled in Medicare Advantage (MA) and participating in the SilverSneakers® healthy aging program. The goal was to assess and quantify the potential value and/or benefit to participants and providers of programs designed to promote physical activity and social engagement in seniors. LMA encounter data, including all medical and pharmacy claims, was linked to MA members with a minimum of 12 months of participation in the fitness program and who were continuously enrolled in their MA plan during the same time period.
