Pros and cons of the proposed CMS regulations

In a recent blog post, Managing Director of BDC Advisor's ACO Practice, Dr. Dale Anderson, commented on the pros and cons of the new rules.

DaleDr. Anderson told Accountable Care News the following according to the post:

Pro: Proposed regulations give an extra 3 years for MSSP ACOs to continue participation under the 1-sided risk category.

Con: Proposed regulations reduce risk sharing formula from a 50-50 savings split to 40-60 for those that elect to stay in the program 3 more years.

"CMS clearly wants to keep organizations in the program...," Dr. Anderson noted, "But approximately 75% of the MSSP programs are losing money on operations."

CMS continues to update rules for MSSP ACOs.
