Primary Care-Led ACOs Deliver Greater Savings and Quality
CMS announced last week that the Medicare Shared Savings Program (MSSP) yielded more than $2.1 billion in savings in 2023 - the largest savings in the program’s history.
CMS’s press release noted that:
“ACOs led by primary care clinicians had significantly higher net per capita savings than ACOs with a smaller proportion of primary care clinicians. These results continue to underscore how important primary care is to the success of the Shared Savings Program.”
