| Description |
Under this demonstration, CMS will participate in innovative multi-payer reform initiatives that are being conducted by states to make advanced primary care practices more broadly available. The demonstration will evaluate whether advanced primary care practice will (1) reduce unjustified variation in utilization and expenditures, (2) improve the safety, effectiveness, timeliness, and efficiency of health care, (3) increase the ability of beneficiaries to participate in decisions concerning their care, (4) increase the availability and delivery of care that is consistent with evidence-based guidelines in historically underserved areas, and (5) reduce overall utilization and expenditures under the Medicare program. The demonstration will be open to States that have undertaken multi-payer reform initiatives, and will be conducted under the authority of section 402 of the Social Security Amendments of 1967. |
