“We are extremely pleased that a majority of the 27 newest Medicare Accountable Care Organizations (ACOs) announced today by CMS will be physician-led and five of the new groups will participate in the advanced payment model. The AMA strongly advocated for these two options, and today’s CMS announcement shows that allowing all interested physicians to lead and participate in this new model increases the number of groups forming Medicare ACOs,” said Dr. Carmel.
