A new report from the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) Office of Inspector General (OIG) finds that Medicare Advantage (MA) directories remain wildly inaccurate, and the underlying networks are inadequate to meet enrollees’ needs:https://oig.hhs.gov/documents/evaluation/11233/OEI-02-23-00540.pdf

So-called “ghost networks,” where inactive or nonexistent providers are listed to mask the limited number of in-network options, continue to be a major problem in MA.

During Medicare open enrollment, be sure to call your providers directly and verify that they are in network before signing up for any Medicare Advantage plan! Visit www.mhanet.org/Medicare for more information and a checklist to help find the plan that's best for you.

Canopy Children's Solutions staff supported educators and students of Leland School District after the tragic event in their community. Canopy’s LINK team from Greenville, MS, exemplified Canopy’s mission by fostering hope, building secure connections, and answering the call to serve when it was needed most.

Mr. Johnson, Principal of Leland High School, provided safe spaces for the team to meet with students, arranged counseling, and brought the school community together. Dr. John D. Damon offered a powerful message about hope, and how to put hope into action to overcome trauma.

Together with school partners and community leaders, Canopy Mission Makers reminded us that even in the darkest seasons, hope takes root through love, presence and shared strength.
