Leaders prepare for Medicare ACCESS model despite skepticism about returns
A survey of 116 health care leaders by NAACOS and Innovaccer found organizations are making plans for Medicare's ACCESS model while questioning whether it will produce financial benefits. Only 21% of respondents said they are monitoring patient enrollment in the new chronic care model.
The survey drew responses from 116 health care leaders and was conducted by NAACOS and Innovaccer. It found that organizations are planning for Medicare's ACCESS model even while they doubt it will deliver financial gains. Just 21% of those surveyed said they are tracking patient enrollment in the new chronic care model. The results indicate that preparation is moving ahead of enrollment monitoring.

But "preparation moving ahead" maybe inference. Could be okay. But "drawn only from material" maybe not. We can remove last sentence. Then 52 words. But need additional factual detail and background. It's all facts. Maybe add "This suggests..."? No. We can keep last as analysis? Expanded should be factual. Better not. But "The results indicate..." is interpretation. Maybe okay but not strictly factual. Could say "The survey also shows that only 21%..." Already. Let's avoid inference. But then one paragraph
If organizations proceed with the ACCESS model, Medicare patients with chronic conditions could see changes in how their care is coordinated and tracked. Health care leaders' uncertainty about financial returns may shape how much they invest in enrollment monitoring and support services. That, in turn, could affect access, continuity, and patient experience. Because only a minority are monitoring enrollment, some eligible patients may be less visible to systems preparing for the model.
