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. During the webinar, speakers Tori Bratcher (Trinity Health), Sarah Coombs (National Partnership for Women & Families), Jeff Micklos (HCTTF), and Aisha T Pittman (NAACOS) will present the recommendations and discuss the perspectives and aligned priorities of consumer advocates and ACOs.

By embracing value-based care, Ochsner Health was able to improve care, reduce costs, and lessen administrative burdens, but success didn’t happen instantly, according to CEO Sidney Raymond. “Creating value-based care takes time, patience, perseverance, and trust. Convincing a health system to make the necessary investments when they might not see immediate return on those investments is the biggest challenge,” said Raymond.
