Regional Baseline Sample Clauses

Regional Baseline. Efficiency Adjustment to the standard discount The ratio of an ACO’s historic expenditures to regional FFS expenditures (regional efficiency), or the “regional efficiency ratio,” will be used to calculate a “regional efficiency” adjustment to the standard discount. The regional efficiency adjustment is intended to recognize the baseline expenditure “operating efficiency” of the NGACO when measured against a regional norm. In this context, “operating efficiency” indicates whether the ACO’s baseline expenditure PBPM is higher or lower than the “average” baseline expenditure PBPM in the ACO’s region.9 Under this approach, ACOs achieve savings through year-to-year improvement over historic expenditures (improvement), but the magnitude by which they must improve will vary based on relative efficiency (attainment). The regional efficiency adjustment to the standard discount will be set prospectively. The regional baseline efficiency ratio will be calculated using capped expenditures for all NGACOs. The regional baseline efficiency adjustment to the standard discount ranges from -1.0% to +1.0%. An NGACO with a base-year expenditure PBPM that is below the prevailing regional average base-year expenditure PBPM will therefore have a smaller adjusted discount than an NGACO with baseline expenditures that are above average in its region. 9 Risk adjustment and geographic pricing adjustment are applied to the regional efficiency adjustment.
