And maybe number one is that um
you know, from a policy perspective.
this hasn't moved the needle as much as maybe some folks would like in terms of really making a meaningful dent in um savings to the Medicare program.
Um I think there have been some demonstrable improvements in quality of care and coordination of care.
But I think probably in, you know, if you were to go back in time and talk to folks like right around the time that um the ACA was passed in those first few years, they'd probably be thinking that in 2026 um we'd have maybe uh maybe found a few silver bullets here that we haven't yet.
And perhaps that's just partly because it's
been very easy for providers to
really operate in both worlds.
Um
And I say easy because CMMI and CMS have allowed that.
And so there it's not like they're gaming the system.
It's just the way that the system is operating right now and is designed.
But um, you know, you're you're never really operating just solely in a value-based care world.
You've got a lot of your healthcare um spend and revenue that is still tied up in fee for service, like even in
these models.
And so um I think maybe that's one criticism of of um
not only CMMI, but just the value-based care initiative writ large in general, is that it's not moving quite as quickly as uh we would like to get us away from the fee for service world.
And then I think the other thing for providers is just um just in general
there it's it's hard over time and i think cm i is is and cms um in both avenues is try in good faith trying to address this but um it's hard over time to succeed financially in these programs um even when you're doing well they're rebasing the benchmark um your
competing against like a prior version, a better version of maybe yourself.
