The Future of the MSSP: Heading to Risk
11
Bottom Line on Final Rule
Uncertainty finally lifted for Medicare Shared Savings Program Agreement period extended from three to five years and shared savings rate increased significantly to 40% for BASIC levels A - B CMS follows through on commitment to push risk Elimination of Tracks 1, 1+, 2, and 3 and replaced with BASIC and ENHANCED options BASIC option begins with one-sided risk but requires participants to take on increasing levels of risk over the agreement period Lower revenue (physician, rural, and smaller hospital-affiliated) given extra time in non risk Continued expansion of non-financial benefits of risk participation Several significant but small changes to benchmark calculations finalized Risk score growth up to 3% over the agreement period will be recognized in updated benchmarks Annba
12
Key Changes from the Proposed Rule
Improved opportunity to share in savings for BASIC option ACOs Improved opportunity to share in savings for BASIC option ACOs New “low revenue” (physician-led) ACOs may defer risk for one additional year Threshold for “low revenue” increased to ACOs with 35% or less of their attributed beneficiaries’ fee-for- service expenditures New beneficiary notifications may be provided via or online patient portal Anna
13
BASIC & ENHANCED ACO Options
BASIC ENHANCED Level A Level B Level C Level D Level E Risk Upside only Two-sided Shared Savings 1st dollar savings, rate of 40% 1st dollar savings, rate of 50% 1st dollar savings, rate of 75% Shared Losses NA 1st dollar losses, rate of 30%, not to exceed 2% of revenue or 1% benchmark 1st dollar losses, rate of 30%, not to exceed 4% of revenue or 2% benchmark 1st dollar losses, rate of 30%, not to exceed nominal risk standard (currently 8% of revenue or 4% of benchmark) 1st dollar losses, rate of 1 minus sharing rate (40-75%), not to exceed 15% of benchmark QPP Status MIPS APM Advanced APM Anna

Steps to Take Now for ACO Participation and Accessing Medicare Claims Data
33
Consider Agreement Cycles
Track 1 2018 was the last application cycle for new Track 1 ACOs May continue out their term through performance year 2020 Will be allowed to apply for Basic option but must begin at Level B BASIC Option Interim cycle for Basic option begins July 1, Regular cycle to begin January 1, 2020 and annually thereafter Interim six month “year” does not require Level advancement Allows up to three and a half years of upside-only risk for new low revenue ACOs ENHANCED Option (ongoing) Same timeline as BASIC No time limit for participation Required start point for high-revenue ACOs experienced with risk Anna
34
Consider Your ACO Options & MIPS
Participants joining the Basic option on July 1, 2019 will be considered MIPS APMs for the 2019 performance year Same rules as standard MIPS participation for data submission (minimum 90-day period) TINs weighted to yield a single ACO score Scored from APM quality measure set (no additional submission requirement) Measurement period will be 2019 calendar year (including July 1 starts) Automatic credit for ACO activities. Historically 100% As of 1/10/2019 pending release of CMS guidance documents Anna
35
Consider MIPS-APM Participation Also Simplifies MIPS Reporting
All eligible providers report all categories except Promoting Interoperability (which exempts hospital-based physicians) Cost is claims-based and does not require reporting MIPS-APM All TINs report Promoting Interoperability except TINs that only include hospital-based physicians Only PCPs (and specialists that act like PCPs) report quality on a subset of patients attributed to ACO for primary care Promoting Interoperability PCPs Specialists Quality PCPs Specialists Hospital-Based EPs Promoting Interoperability PCPs Specialists Quality PCPs Improvement Activities PCPs Specialists Hospital-Based EPs Cost (Claims only) PCPs Specialists Hospital-Based EPs Anna-In a collaborative ACO of 100,000 lives, the average PCP will report 3-5 quality elements, most specialists will not report quality, everyone gets 100% on improvement activities and all patient facing clinicians will have to report on promoting interoperability. Qualified Advanced APMs Report Nothing!
