ACO Assignment Improvement Act of 2024

This bill amends Medicare's Shared Savings Program rules to change how Accountable Care Organizations (ACOs) count primary care services toward their performance metrics. Starting in 2025, ACOs will include Medicare-covered primary care services provided by their participating doctors and providers in their quality and cost calculations. The change specifically applies to performance years beginning January 1, 2025, and affects ACOs participating in Medicare's Shared Savings Program. This adjustment modifies the technical criteria for ACOs to demonstrate value, directly impacting how they report and earn shared savings.
