CMS is increasingly the center of gravity for value-based care as Medicare Advantage plans pull back, with providers looking to federal models and Medicare payment policy for growth signals—especially in home health, post-acute care, and rural delivery transformation. The TEAM demonstration is creating a near-term opening for home health providers to prove their role in reducing episode cost and avoidable utilization, while the Trump administration’s $93.3M rural hospital investment in Georgia ties telehealth and surgical robotics to access and care redesign goals (TEAM home health opportunity; Georgia rural hospital funding). At the same time, NCQA’s move of the HEDIS Transitions of Care measure to ECDS reporting raises the bar for digital quality infrastructure, making data exchange and post-discharge workflow reliability more central to ACO, MA, and primary care model performance.
