Health plans that disclose also perform better.
The gap between top- and bottom-performing plans in NCQA's State of Managed Care Quality report remains enormous. For example, beta-blocker treatment rates range from 52% to 92%. The report includes data on 292 health plans on effectiveness of care and member satisfaction measures. Fewer health plans were willing to release their performance data publicly this year.
