CMS Announces Access Model for Chronic Care

CMS announced the ACCESS (Advancing Chronic Care with Effective, Scalable Solutions) Model, which will run for 10 years nationwide. The voluntary model will focus on a payment approach designed to expand access to technology-supported care in patients with chronic conditions initially including early cardio-kidney-metabolic, cardio-kidney-metabolic, musculoskeletal, and behavioral health. More information will be released the coming months, but a detailed FAQ is available. This model can be followed through our Digital Health Blog.
