Proportion of ACOs Achieving Shared Savings under Medicare ACO Programs in the First 3 Years of Payment Contracts

Caption

Data are from the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) public release file and the National Survey of ACOs (NSACO) (N=137; cohort consistent over all 3 years). The NSACO response rate was 71% among eligible ACOs. Physician-group ACOs are ACOs consisting only of physician groups and no other provider types. Hospital-coalition ACOs are ACOs that are not integrated delivery systems and that include a hospital. Mean number of clinicians is the number of full-time-equivalent primary care and specialty clinicians participating in the ACO. Proportion of ACOs achieving savings comes from publicly available CMS data.
