Tim Gronniger, Scott Heiser, Rahul Rajkumar, Joe Lucas, and Misha Segal explore the history and evolution of Medicare payment reform and growth in alternative payment models (APMs), including the Medicare Shared Savings Program (MSSP). The authors also highlight advanced APMs (A-APMs), such as risk-bearing accountable care organizations, and the policy decisions impacting incentives that have limited provider adoption of these risk models.
