Recently, the Center for Medicare and Medicaid Innovation (CMMI) introduced their strategic refresh “Putting All Patients at the Center of Care” to support broader, more equitable, and outcome-based healthcare delivery transformation while streamlining current and future payment models.

To date, only 6 of 50 models yielded statistically significant savings for Medicare and taxpayers. Further, of the six, only four met the requirements defined by CMMI for an extension in duration and scope given the new administration’s desire to create more cohesive models to alleviate the confusion and complexity caused by the number of models previously.
