What are shared-savings programs?
This is part four of a five-part series: Medicare and the Transition to Value-Based Care
About this briefing
Shared-savings programs are perhaps the most advanced and most effective set of value-based payment programs that hospitals can participate in today. The Medicare Shared Savings Program (MSSP) is designed to provide high-quality, coordinated care to improve outcomes and reduce costs. Eligible providers, hospitals, and suppliers may participate in shared-savings programs by creating or participating in an Accountable Care Organization (ACO).
As a field sales rep, an account executive, a medical liaison, or a customer service manager in the health care industry, you know that hospitals, health systems, and physician groups across the country continue to evaluate the menu of Medicare ACO options. You can support customers by helping them understand the key details of each model.
In part four of our five-part educational series, you’ll learn what shared-savings programs are and how they work—and get an understanding the MSSP and the Next Generation ACO program.
