Risk Adjustment

Hello -I am an RHIT who has just entered into a new arena of work and I am looking for any information or resources that anyone cares to reccommend. After 8 years in the acute care hospital setting, I have accepted a position with an insurance provider in the Risk Adjustment area of their Medicare plan. I am researching and learning quickly but I would very much apprecaite any information or recommendations any has regarding this area.
Thank You
