CMS is moving to refine specialty value-based payment by proposing six updates to the Ambulatory Specialty Model for heart failure, signaling that the Trump administration’s CMS under Dr. Mehmet Oz and CMMI Director Abe Sutton is continuing to tune episode/specialty models rather than retreating from mandatory or quasi-mandatory accountability.
