New Finding on ACOs

I am not sure how we can use this in coding for HCC, but I just found this web site exists, so I'm pretty excited about seeing what is available.  It is the ELECTRONIC CODE OF FEDERAL REGULATIONS it is part of the U.S. GOVERNMENT PUBLISHING OFFICE and can be found at 

The e-CFR is supported and maintained by the Office of the Federal Register (OFR), which is an office under National Archives and Records Administration (NARA), and the Government Publishing Office (GPO).



from the Browse tab on left, Title 42: Public Health has information for the Medicare Advantage Program
There are volumes 1 - 5, with volumes 2-5 dealing with "CENTERS FOR MEDICARE & MEDICAID SERVICES, DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH AND HUMAN SERVICES"

It looks like all the legal E's having to do with Medicare

it is said to contain the "Medicare Shared Savings Program Final Rule Overview, June 2015"

just haven't found that on the webpage yet...





and here it is from the Federal Register
this is when attorneys come in handy


And if all this hasn't scared you off and you'd like information about applying to participate in the Shared Savings Program, visithttp://www.cms.gov/Medicare/Medicare-Fee-for-Service-Payment/sharedsavingsprogram on the CMS website.

Have a beautiful day!
