Input on the Geo AHEAD Model

CMS logo featuring CMS in large blue letters with a yellow and blue swoosh above, and Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services written below, on a white background bordered by blue. CMS is seeking input from external stakeholders on a novel, geographically based accountable care organization shared savings program called Geo AHEAD that is launching under the Achieving Healthcare Efficiency through Accountable Design (AHEAD) Model in 2028.

This Geo AHEAD Participation Perspectives Survey is intended to gather perspectives that will help inform future planning, policy development, and potential implementation strategies. Responses will be reviewed both individually and, in the aggregate, to identify stakeholder priorities, anticipated opportunities and challenges, and areas where additional clarification or refinement may be needed as CMS continues to develop Geo AHEAD.
