Task Order (XRAD)
Description
The purpose of this Task Order is to evaluate the effectiveness of the Senior Risk Reduction Demonstration (SRRD) in health promotion, health management, and disease prevention. The objectives of the SSRD interventions are to improve the health and well-being of Medicare beneficiaries and to reduce beneficiary expenditures under Part A and B of the Medicare program. Participants in SRRD are non-institutionalized Medicare fee-for-service beneficiaries enrolled in Medicare Parts A and B and between the ages of 67 and 74. Demonstration vendors will provide risk reduction services to randomly selected beneficiaries nationwide (SRRD-N) and from communities which have exemplary Information and Referral/Assistance (SRRD-Local) programs for seniors. The contractor will be required to design and conduct the evaluation of this demonstration, which will inform CMS on the reduction in selected health risks among Medicare beneficiaries using secondary data from the Health Risk Appraisal (HRA) surveys, and budget neutrality of the demonstration costs using CMS Medicare claims data.
