STATE OF VERMONT GREEN MOUNTAIN CARE BOARDVermont All-Payer Accountable Care Organization Model Agreement • October 31st, 2016
Contract Type FiledOctober 31st, 2016The rising cost of health care imposes unsustainable financial burdens on Vermonters and their families, impedes equitable access to preventive care, and threatens to cripple our State’s economy. Left unchecked and uncontrolled, it will prevent Vermont from reaching its goal to ensure that all of its citizens have access to affordable, high-quality health care. The problem is not unique to Vermont—Congress enacted the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act of 2010 (ACA), for example, to address our national health care crisis.
