The CMS Innovation Center has been busy rolling out a flurry of new models including ACCESS, LEAD, and MAHA Elevate. A4H is pleased to welcome Abe Sutton, Director of the CMS Innovation Center and Deputy Administrator at CMS, to our Health Care Value Week Conference.

In a fireside chat with A4H CEO Mara McDermott, Abe will share his perspective on what these new models are designed to accomplish, lessons from prior Innovation Center initiatives, and what’s next on CMMI’s agenda as accountable care continues to evolve.

Accountable care has made real progress in its adoption, but there’s more work ahead.

🔹 A roadmap for specialty value-based care
The CMS Innovation Center has long struggled to bring specialists into value-based care. CKCC shows it can be done—and done well—through a total-cost-of-care model tailored to specialists.

Accountable care works, and it is especially critical for patients with the highest needs and highest costs. We appreciate CMS’s recognition of this fact and its commitment to continuing a High Needs track in the LEAD Model.

The CMS Innovation Center has announced its intent to continue a dedicated High Needs track under the new LEAD ACO Model, an important and welcome decision for patients with the most complex medical needs and the providers who care for them.

That is why preserving a distinct High Needs track matters. Caring for the sickest Medicare beneficiaries is fundamentally different, and policy should reflect that reality.
