About an ACO

What is an ACO?
The Medicare Shared Savings Program promotes accountability for a population of Medicare beneficiaries, improves the coordination of fee-for-service (FFS) items and services, and encourages investment in infrastructure and redesigned care processes for high-quality and efficient service delivery. Under the Shared Savings Program, providers of services and suppliers that participate in an Accountable Care Organization (ACO) continue to receive traditional Medicare FFS payments under Parts A and B. ACOs that successfully meet quality and savings requirements share a percentage of the savings with Medicare.
Medicare Shared Savings Program is CMS Innovation Center's longest-running value-based care model.
