ACO REACH Financial and Quality Performance Results

Performance data for the Accountable Care Organization REACH Model, formerly the Global and Professional Direct Contracting Model, prior to settlement. The dataset includes information on risk arrangements, stop loss, capitation, savings rates, and quality results for participating ACOs. It is published by the U.S. Department of Health & Human Services.

Use Cases

• Analyze the relationship between ACOs' risk arrangement and their savings rate to evaluate financial model performance.
• Compare quality results across ACOs to identify high-performing care delivery patterns.
• Investigate the impact of capitation and stop loss provisions on financial outcomes for different organizations.

Strengths

• Published by the authoritative U.S. Department of Health & Human Services.
• Focuses on a specific federal payment model (ACO REACH/GPDC) for Original Medicare.
• Includes both financial metrics (e.g., savings rate) and quality results.

Limitations

• Specific row count, column count, and temporal coverage are not provided in the input.
• Data is described as 'prior to settlement,' which may limit analysis of final reconciled outcomes.
• The 'other-license-specified' license requires careful review before use.
