Résumé
In accordance with the requirements of the Privacy Act of 1974, CMS is establishing a new system of records to support its shared savings programs, the first of which are the Medicare Shared Savings Program and Pioneer ACO Model (collectively referred to as the ACO program). The ACO program implements recent health care reform provisions of the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act (PPACA), amending the Social Security Act (the Act). The system of records will contain personally identifiable information (PII) about certain individuals who participate in, or whose PII is used to determine eligibility of an Accountable Care Organization (ACO) to participate in, a shared savings program; i.e., Medicare fee-for-service (FFS) beneficiaries, sole proprietor health care ACO participants and ACO suppliers/providers, key leaders and managers of accountable care organizations (ACOs), and contact persons for ACOs. The program and the system of records are more thoroughly described in the Supplementary Information section and System of Records Notice (SORN), below.
