Required ACO Information for Public Reporting
ACO Participation Waiver
Pursuant to the ACO Participation Waiver, (1) effective January 1, 2023 ColigoCare provided access to software from a company named Inferscience, Inc. to primary care providers who participate in the ColigoCare ACO and utilize an electronic medical record system that has an ability to integrate with the software; and (2) effective approximately February 28, 2024 ColigoCare provided access to software from a company named Health Endeavors to certain providers. Providing both types of software is reasonably related to the purpose of the Medicare Shared Savings Program because it will assist providers with required hierarchical condition category coding.
Pursuant to the ACO Participation Waiver, effective January 1, 2024, ColigoCare has implemented an updated funds distribution program (“Funds Distribution Program”). The Funds Distribution Program sets forth how certain funds earned by ColigoCare for participation in value-based and shared savings programs may be distributed to ColigoCare’s participating practices. The Funds Distribution Program is reasonably related to the purpose of the Medicare Shared Savings Program because it will promote accountability for the quality, cost, and overall care for Medicare patients and help meet the quality performance standards of the MSSP.
