CMS has taken the first step to correct the Accountable Care Prospective Trend (ACPT) by reweighting the projection for care provided in 2024. The ACPT now needs to be redesigned for long-term sustainability.
More than 120,000 clinicians rely on Medicare shared savings to pay for the care they deliver to seniors. CMS must build standard guardrails into the ACPT that account for unexpected changes in spending trends to allow the intent of this policy to be achieved. This will give Accountable Care Organizations the assurances they need to continue to invest in high-quality care for seniors.
Accountable care is reducing costs and improving care. Tell CMS to fix the ACPT today to sustain this forward momentum.
