CMS said 15 out of the 20 organizations in the program generated a total of $120 million in savings.
Pioneer Accountable Care Organizations are expected to be the most experienced healthcare providers in the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services Innovation Model. But while several earned big payouts through cost savings in 2014, others face steep penalties for overspending.
According to CMS, which released the data on Tuesday, 15 out of the 20 organizations in the program generated a total of $120 million in savings, while the remaining five had spending above benchmarks. Three of those will split nearly $9 million penalties.
