The Health Care Transformation Task Force is an industry consortium that brings together patients, payers, providers and purchasers to align private and public sector efforts to clear the way for a sweeping transformation of the U.S. health care system. We seek to provide a critical mass of business, operational and policy expertise from the private sector that, when combined with the efforts of the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services and other public and private sector stakeholders, can accelerate the pace of delivery system transformation. Our members represent every sector of health care. While at times we have competing interests, we share a common commitment to transform our business and clinical models to deliver the Triple Aim of better health, better care and lower costs. Our outputs will not reflect the simple self-interest of any one organization or market segment, but rather agreement on common private and public approaches that will best facilitate transformation.

Today, NAACOS and the Health Care Transformation Task Force (HCTTF) released a new resource on strengthening #patientengagement in ACO governance, care delivery redesign, and individual care planning. The resource outlines recommendations for the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) that were informed by ACOs and patient and consumer advocacy organizations, with short- and long-term recommendations including: 1️⃣ Remove the current one-size-fits-all approach to ACOs’ communications with beneficiaries. 2️⃣ Work to expand and align waivers that provide direct benefits to beneficiaries. 3️⃣ Ensure ACOs have adequate guidance to solicit beneficiary input and feedback, establish community partnerships, and incorporate these perspectives into their work. Access the resource here: https://lnkd.in/e8QgbkEZ NAACOS and HCTTF will host a webinar discussing the recommendations on 7/31 from 2:00-3:00pm ET.
