7 Pioneer Summary What is it? Impacts the Medicare Fee-for-Service Population CMS initiative to test designs of new care that will reduce cost while improving the health of the Medicare population Administered by Center for Medicare/Medicaid Innovation (CMMI) Through better coordination of care and redesign of care delivery desired outcome is improved quality results measured by 33 quality measures and at the same time a reduction in overall cost for the Medicare population 7

8 Pioneer How it works? Participating organizations will take accountability for the quality outcomes and overall cost of care for the population assigned to them Payment will be the normal fee for service amount plus a share of savings if they can provide total cost of care below the national trend Downside risk is assumed by the participating organization and a payment back to CMS will occur if total cost of care is above the national trend Initial term is 3 years with an option to extend for an additional 2 years. There is a 60 day out clause for any reason. Goal of CMS is to save $1.1 billion over the life of the program from all 32 participating organizations 8
