Quote of the Day


"As currently designed, and as proposed in this [new CMS rule for the Medicare Shared Savings Program], the MSSP applies too many 'sticks' and offers too few 'carrots' to participating providers, and, possibly, to those entities contemplating MSSP participation.... While some of CMS's proposed improvements are welcome and could make the program more attractive to new applicants and existing ACOs, we question whether other proposals go far enough to correct misguided design elements that emphasize penalties rather than rewards."



— American Hospital Assn. Executive Vice President Rick Pollack said in a letter to CMS
