CMS Team Model: A New Era in Healthcare Accountability

Persivia Inc12 Nov, 2024Health

CMS is implementing the Transforming Episode Accountability Model (TEAM) to improve patient care. By making hospitals responsible for the cost and quality of patient care throughout certain treatment episodes, this model focuses on value and quality rather than volume (which is frequently the focus of traditional healthcare systems). Set to launch in 2026, the CMS Team Model is a systematic, patient-centered strategy to improve healthcare outcomes overall, not just another cost-cutting measure.
