Assessments
Partial credit is warranted. After Allen's 2022 campaign term, CMS finalized CY 2027 Medicare Advantage payment policies with a projected 2.48% net average increase, supporting stable funding, but the record does not show Allen caused or negotiated that CMS action. Allen also cosponsored H.R.3514 in 2025, a Medicare Advantage prior-authorization bill that advanced in House committees by July 2026, showing legislative effort to protect MA access but not enacted delivery of the full promise. Sources checked include CMS's 2027 MA/Part D rate materials and H.R.3514 public bill status summaries.
