Show Notes
Late last month, the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) announced its redesign of its Global and Professional Direct Contracting Model to its now-branded Accountable Care Organization (ACO) Realizing Equity, Access, and Community Health (REACH) Model. The agency stated the redesign is meant to advance health equity and was in response to stakeholder feedback and participant experience.
On today's episode of Health Affairs This Week, Harvard Medical School's Michael Chernew joins Health Affairs Forefront Editor Chris Fleming to talk about the new CMS model for ACOs, and where Medicare Advantage could improve.
