ACO REACH High-Needs

The ACO REACH (Accountable Care Organization Realizing Equity, Access, and Community Health) Model is an initiative introduced by the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) in the Medicare program.

ACO REACH is a value-based program, meaning the providers are rewarded/​reimbursed for the quality of care provided and the health outcomes of patients, rather than the number of services rendered.

Under the ACO REACH Model, participating accountable care organizations (ACOs) collaborate with community-based organizations and local stakeholders to implement strategies that address the specific needs of high-needs patients. The model is intended to help beneficiaries with complex healthcare needs, including those facing challenges related to social determinants of health, such as housing instability, food insecurity, and limited access to transportation.
