The week of March 1st, the Center for Medicare and Medicaid Innovation (CMMI) officially delayed and suspended three of its programs, two of which, the Kidney Care Choices model and Seriously Ill Populations (SIP) track of the Primary Care First model, were set to begin on April 1. The Geographic Direct Contracting model has been indefinitely suspended, and CMMI made changes to the terms of the Direct Contracting model. In this Ropes & Gray podcast, health care partner, Christina Bergeron, and health care counsel, Sarah Blumenthal, discuss these actions, their implications and recommended next steps for providers, groups, and others participating, or interested in participating, in these programs.
