Is your ACO up for the challenges in the CMS Proposed PFS Rule for 2024? While many ACOs have focused mainly on the new APP reporting alternative, there are many aspects to that rule that push ACOs forward in their development as instruments for organizing Value-Based Care. These include a central role in helping providers advance their EHR systems, folding specialists into their quality (and potentially cost) strategies, an increasing measurement of health equity, and recognition of additional providers. The underlying message: plan for increasing ACO expectations to improve Value. In this webinar we’ll evaluate the new requirements and discuss smart strategies for ACOs to adopt in 2024 and beyond.
