The Oncology Care Model and Medicare Payments, Utilization, and Quality
Listen to this summary
The authors aimed to evaluate the impact of the Oncology Care Model (OCM) on Medicare spending, utilization, and quality of care for patients undergoing chemotherapy. They found that while the OCM was associated with modest reductions in Medicare payments during treatment episodes, it did not significantly improve care quality, and ultimately resulted in a net loss to Medicare due to enhanced services and performance-based payments.
