  4. Vermont State Innovation Model Shared Savings ACO Programs 101

  5. Vermont State Innovation Model Background and Definitions What is an aco shared savings program?

  6. What is an ACO Shared Savings Program (SSP)? A performance-based contract between a payer and provider organization that sets forth a value-based program to govern the determination of sharing of savings between the parties. http://www.commonwealthfund.org/~/media/Files/Publications/Fund%20Report/2012/Aug/1618_Forster_accountable_care_strategies_premier.pdf

  7. What is an ACO? Accountable Care Organizations (ACOs) are comprised of and led by health care providers who have agreed to be accountable for the cost and quality of care for a defined population. These providers work together to manage and coordinate care for their patients and have established mechanisms for shared governance. *SIM Payment Standards Work Group Definition 2013 Xcenda Slide Presentation. 2012

  8. What Does this Mean for Beneficiaries? • The Program is designed to improve beneficiary outcomes and increase value of care by: • Promoting accountability for the care of beneficiaries • Requiring coordinated care for all services provided under FFS systems • Encouraging investment in infrastructure and redesigned care processes • The Program also would aim to reduce: • lost or unavailable medical charts • duplicated medical procedures • having to share the same information over and over with different doctors • ACOs are NOT HMOs • They do not affect beneficiaries access or choice in health care providers • There is no “gate keeper” • There is no change to beneficiary coverage benefits • They are governed by the same providers who provide care https://www.rmf.harvard.edu/Clinician-Resources/Article/2012/ACO-Explaining-the-benefits-of-it-to-Patients http://www.cms.gov/Medicare/Medicare-Fee-for-Service-Payment/sharedsavingsprogram/index.html?redirect=/sharedsavingsprogram/
