What’s New: The CMS Innovation Center released the third annual evaluation report and early results ahead of the fourth report for ACO REACH that shows the model improved healthcare quality and reduced gross spending during its first four performance years.
Why it Matters: This latest evaluation of ACO REACH provides strong evidence that accountable care organizations (ACOs) deliver on the Innovation Center’s mission to improve health care affordability and quality; future results for 2025 and 2026 will reflect model updates aimed at increasing the chances of saving money in the model’s final years.
