CMS OPENS SECOND APPLICATION PERIOD
FOR BPCI ADVANCED MODEL

On Tuesday, April 25, CMS announced that the application window for Cohort 2 of BPCI Advanced is now open. Cohort 2 will begin Model Year 3 on January 1, 2020 and represents the last opportunity for providers to join this voluntary alternative payment model. The application period will close on June 24, 2019, at midnight EST. BPCI Advanced builds on its predecessor, BPCI Classic, and like other bundled payment programs, rewards clinicians for improving outcomes and lowering costs.

Here's what we know about Cohort 2 so far:

  • 37 clinical episodes, including the addition of bariatric surgery, inflammatory bowel disease, seizures, transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) and outpatient total knee arthroplasty (TKA).
  • CMS does not plan to have any more application periods, meaning this is the last chance for providers to join the program.
  • The application and enrollment timeline will be tight, but manageable. CMS will send historical baseline data in "late September," and participants must make a decision in "November."
  • Participants can add/drop bundles at the end of 2020, signifying a one-year commitment.
  • CMS will be releasing more information about the program over the next eight weeks
