Long-term Enhanced ACO Design (LEAD) Model Overview Webinar

CMS will hold a webinar providing an overview of the Long-term Enhanced ACO Design (LEAD) Model on Thursday, January 29, at 2:00 p.m. 

The LEAD Model builds upon the CMS Innovation Center’s earlier accountable care work and utilizes improved benchmarking to appeal to a broader mix of health care providers, including those with specialized patient populations and those new to ACOs. With a 10-year performance period, the LEAD Model offers a pathway toward sustainable long-term benchmarks and savings and focuses on better serving coordinated care for high-needs patients, such as those dually eligible for Medicare and Medicaid, and those who are homebound or home-limited.

During the webinar, the LEAD Model team will discuss model goals, participation options, eligibility, and payment methodology, as well as provide more information on the application process, timeline, and resources.

Date: Thursday, January 29, at 2:00 p.m.
