Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services is now accepting applications for the ACO Primary Care Flex Model (ACO PC Flex Model), which aims to grow participation in Accountable Care Organizations and the Medicare Shared Savings Program and increase the number of people with Medicare in an accountable care relationship. The RFA and application portal opens today, May 30- June 17th. Organizations interested in participating must first apply — either as new ACOs or renewing ACOs — to the Shared Savings Program. The model will launch on January 1, 2025, and run for five years. The ACO PC Flex Model is a voluntary model that will focus on primary care delivery in the Shared Savings Program. It will test how prospective payments and increased funding for primary care in ACOs impact health outcomes, quality, and costs of care. The flexible payment design will empower participating ACOs and their primary care providers to use more innovative, team-based, person-centered and proactive approaches to care. Reach out and look for future Acclivity Health Solutions, Inc webinars to learn more.
