Lawmakers introduced bipartisan legislation to equalize Medicare Advantage funding in Puerto Rico with U.S. Virgin Islands adjustments.
Investivoq AI Summary
Bill introduced: Resident Commissioner Pablo José Hernández and Representatives Raul Ruiz, Darren Soto and Gus Bilirakis said they introduced the “Puerto Rico Medicare Advantage Fairness Act of 2026,” a bipartisan bill aimed at changing how Medicare Advantage payments are calculated for Puerto Rico.
Proposed change: The bill would use the same geographic adjustment applied to the U.S. Virgin Islands, with supporters saying this would better reflect health-care costs in Puerto Rico and make funding more stable beginning in 2027.
Background: The release says more than 650,000 Puerto Ricans rely on Medicare Advantage, and that supporters view the measure as a response to a long-running funding gap. It also notes earlier advocacy helped lead CMS to raise Puerto Rico’s 2027 Medicare Advantage payment increase to about 4%.
