Over the past week, program oversight and compliance in value-based care have taken center stage with CMS greenlighting a hemp product use pilot in Medicare under the Substance Access Beneficiary Engagement Incentive, signaling an openness to innovative approaches in beneficiary engagement and substance use interventions (Foley & Lardner). Simultaneously, new 2027 Medicare Advantage capitation rates and payment policies were announced, amid active litigation from health systems over payer compliance and ongoing scrutiny of suspect billing practices by ACOs—an environment that underscores rising tensions between payers, providers, and federal oversight in the Trump administration’s pursuit of heightened program integrity and payment accuracy.
