Through the Independence at Home Demonstration, CMS is partnering with healthcare providers to test the effectiveness of providing chronically ill Medicare beneficiaries with primary care services in the home. The three consortia selected to participate include:
• Innovative Primary Senior Care (Skokie, Ill.)
• Treasure Coast Healthcare (Stuart, Fla.)
• Virginia Commonwealth University Health System/Medical College of Virginia Hospitals and Physicians (Richmond, Va.)
In April, CMS announced the names of individual practices selected to participate in the demonstration as well.
