GovInfo bill text says Mr. Warner, for himself and Mrs. Blackburn, introduced S. 5034 on July 20, 2026. The bill requires MA organizations to submit enrollee-level supplemental-benefit data, including eligibility requirements, benefit category, utilization, and payment data, and requires CMS to publish a public-use de-identified data file online.

Blackburn's Senate office announced that Senators Marsha Blackburn and Mark Warner reintroduced the Medicare Advantage Supplemental Benefits Transparency Act, described as legislation requiring Medicare Advantage plans to publicly report supplemental benefits offered and beneficiaries' use of them. The release quotes Blackburn supporting the bill's transparency requirements.
Assessments
The promise was specifically to introduce and support legislation requiring Medicare Advantage plans to publicly report supplemental benefits and beneficiary use. During Blackburn's current Senate term, official bill text for S. 5034 identified Blackburn as part of the Senate introduction, and her office publicly announced and supported the reintroduced Medicare Advantage Supplemental Benefits Transparency Act. Because the promised action was introduction and support rather than enactment, the available evidence supports full delivery in the same term.
