📣 The Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services Innovation Center recently announced a new proposed model, the Transforming Episode Accountability Model (TEAM), advancing on prior episode-based payment models Bundled Payments for Care Improvement Advanced (BPCIA) and Comprehensive Care for Joint Replacement (CJR). TEAM is designed to hold hospitals responsible for coordinating care for Medicare patients.  If launched, TEAM will run from January 1, 2026, and run for five years. TEAM aims to enhance care quality for Medicare patients during specific surgeries, decreasing rehospitalization and recovery time. This also aims to cut Medicare spending and promote fair outcomes. TEAM members will be responsible for episode quality and cost, ensuring patient referrals to primary care services. This supports CMS's goal of all Medicare patients having a care relationship with cost and quality accountability by 2030. Major episodes of focus include:  🔹Lower extremity joint replacement (470) 🔹Surgical hip femur fracture treatment (481) 🔹Spinal fusion (460) 🔹Coronary artery bypass graft (235) 🔹Major bowel procedure (330) Performance will be measured on quality metrics, including hospital-wide all cause readmissions, patient safety and adverse events composite measure, and patient-reported outcomes.  Interested in learning how HDAI can help you with this and other value-based programs and quality improvement initiatives?
