Abstract
For the Medicare Shared Savings Program (MSSP) and many of the accountable care organizations (ACOs) that participated in it, 2019 was billed as a transition year. But data released by the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) in September show Texas ACOs fared quite well last year - and a number of Texas physicians and ACO officials say the savings generated are worth the gruntwork that MSSP requires.
