Following this charge, the CMS Innovation Center, through its models, initiatives and Congressionally-mandated demonstrations, has accelerated the shift from a health care system that pays for volume to one that pays for value.</p><p><strong>Testing New Payment and Service Delivery Models</strong></p><p>The CMS Innovation Center leverages expertise from across the health care industry, including clinicians, analysts and beneficiary groups, and other federal agencies in the development of<a href="/priorities/innovation/innovation-models#views=models" title="Our Models"> new payment and service delivery models</a>. The CMS Innovation Center welcomes input on model ideas and innovations related to health care service delivery and payment but does not, however, fund unsolicited proposals or provide grants for model development.</p><p>The CMS Innovation Center solicits and selects model participants through open competition. The CMS Innovation Center follows protocols to ensure fairness and transparency, and provides potential partners opportunities to ask questions regarding expectations.</p><p><strong>Evaluating Results and Advancing Best Practices</strong></p><p>The CMS Innovation Center continually monitors and evaluates its payment and service delivery models.</p><p>Statute specifies the CMS Innovation Center evaluate quality of care (including patient-level outcomes, patient satisfaction and other patient-centeredness criteria) and changes in spending in each model. The CMS Innovation Center also gathers and reports on lessons-learned and best practices identified during model testing to support improvements across CMS and the health care system, at large. The CMS Innovation Center facilitates and accelerates the healthcare system’s move to value-based care, which pays for healthcare based on outcomes.</p><p>The CMS Innovation Center has created learning collaboratives for model participants to promote broad and rapid dissemination of evidence and best practices that have the potential to deliver higher quality and lower cost care for Medicare, Medicaid and CHIP beneficiaries. This includes leveraging claims data and other metrics to deliver actionable feedback to providers about their performance.</p><p><strong>Expanding Models</strong></p><p>Congress provided the Secretary of Health & Human Services (HHS) the authority to expand the scope and duration of a model through rulemaking, including the option to test a model nationwide. To exercise this authority, the Secretary and CMS actuaries must review the CMS evaluations and determine that a model must either reduce spending without reducing the quality of care, or improve the quality of care without increasing spending, and must not deny or limit the coverage or provision of any benefits.</p><p><strong>Quality Payment Program</strong></p><article class="align-right media media--type-image media--view-mode-embedded"> <div mid="/priorities/innovation/media/image/about-cmmi-apms-mips" class="field field--name-image field--type-image field--label-hidden field__item"> <img src="/sites/default/files/innovation/2020-11/About-CMMI-APMs-MIPS.png" width="303" height="289" alt="APMs are grouped into 2 categories, Merit-based Incentive Payment System (MIPS) and Advanced." title="About CMMI APMs MIPS" loading="lazy"> </div> </article> <p>The CMS Innovation Center plays a critical role in implementing the <a href="https://qpp.cms.gov/" target="_blank" title="Quality Payment Program website">Quality Payment Program</a>, which Congress created as part of the Medicare Access and CHIP Reauthorization Act of 2015 (MACRA) to replace Medicare’s Sustainable Growth Rate formula to pay for physician and other provider services. In this program, clinicians may earn incentive payments by sufficiently participating in Advanced APMs. By participating in Advanced APMs, clinicians also accept some risk based on their patients’ quality and cost outcomes and other specified criteria.</p><p>For more Quality Payment Program resources, <a href="https://qpp.cms.gov/about/resource-library">please review</a> the QPP Resource Library.</p><p><strong>Where Can I Learn More About the CMS Innovation Center?</strong></p><ul><li><a href="/priorities/innovation/about/strategic-direction" title="CMMI Strategic Direction">CMMI Strategic Direction</a></li><li><a href="/priorities/innovation/innovation-models#views=models">List of innovation models</a></li><li><a href="/priorities/innovation/completed-models-fact-sheet" title="Link to the CMS Innovation Center's Completed Models Fact Sheet">Completed Models Contribute to Health System Transformation</a></li><li><a href="/priorities/innovation/key-concepts" title="CMS Innovation Center Key Concepts landing page">CMS Innovation Center Key Concepts</a></li><li><a href="/priorities/innovation/data-and-reports">Model data and reports</a></li><li><a href="/priorities/innovation/recent-milestones-and-updates">Recent milestones and updates</a></li><li><a href="/priorities/innovation/about/connect-with-us" title="Connect with the CMS Innovation Center" data-entity-type="node" data-entity-uuid="1812c267-4719-4a40-bea4-b9a0b70809d7" data-entity-substitution="canonical">Connect with the CMS Innovation Center</a></li><li><a href="/priorities/innovation/innovation-models/map">Learn more about models in your state</a> <em>Please contact your health care provider directly if you have questions about their participation in a CMS Innovation Center model.</em></li></ul><hr><h2>Our Team</h2><p>The Innovation Center is a component of the Centers of Medicare & Medicaid Services, an Agency of the U.S. Department of Health & Human Services.
