This List Sponsored by Accountable Care Newson Wed, 11/16/2011
- ACO’s will not be required to take down-side risk in year 3 but those that do will be able to share more of the savings than those that only agree to share savings
- Beneficiaries won’t be assigned retrospectively; instead they will be assigned quarterly with an end of year reconciliation
- The required quality metrics to be reported are reduced from approx 65 to approx 35
- Savings for those that exceed the threshold will begin with the first dollar of savings
Notes: Commentary from Gail Wilensky, PhD, Project Hope regarding the ACO Final Rule were included in the October Special Edition of Accountable Care News
