Reduce Readmissions, Lower Costs:
How Medicare’s Chronic Care Management Program Provides Better Care for Patients
Value-based care (VBC) programs strive to improve health outcomes while saving money for Medicare, patients, and taxpayers. However, most of these programs haven’t succeeded.
Chronic Care Management (CCM) stands out among VBC programs for consistently reducing costs and lowering patients’ risk of hospitalization. ChartSpan’s latest claims data shows that their patients enrolled in CCM have:
- 52% lower hospital readmission rates
- 36% lower inpatient costs
- 21% lower overall healthcare costs
