Your Strategic Advantage for What's Next in Risk Adjustment, Quality, Compliance, and Beyond. 

RISE West is the most anticipated Medicare Advantage senior leadership event of the year - but it's more than an event. It's a reunion of industry trailblazers where the conversations are meaningful, the connections feel like family, and the peer-to-peer exchange happens in a truly intimate setting.  

As CMS regulations evolve, payment models shift, and AI continues to reshape the landscape, health plans are under pressure to move with urgency and think long-term. The days of short-term fixes are over ... now is the time to lead with intention and build lasting strategy.

RISE West brings together 500+ senior leaders across Medicare Advantage for an unmatched opportunity that blends high-level policy insights, proven operational tactics, and invaluable networking with those driving the future of managed care.

Start making plans to join us in San Diego for RISE West 2026! You’ll leave with fresh thinking, stronger connections, and real-world takeaways to drive performance, compliance, and innovation - because in this landscape, strong leadership isn’t optional. It’s essential.
