The new contract provides an annual network-wide average increase of 3 percent to Tufts and its affiliated providers. In addition, Tufts Medical Center and NEQCA, who were early participants in BCBSMA’s Alternative Quality Contract, have agreed to join the newest version of the contract, which requires participating organizations to outperform the rest of BCBSMA’s provider network in managing the growth in healthcare spending.
