CMS Innovation Model

The CMS ACCESS Program

In Home Medical Group is proud to participate in the CMS ACCESS Program, a Medicare innovation model designed to improve care coordination, behavioral health integration, and long-term outcomes for Medicare beneficiaries.

What is the CMS ACCESS Program?

ACCESS (Accountable Care for Cognitive and Cardiac Care Excellence in Social Supports) is a CMS Innovation model that supports Medicare beneficiaries with complex care needs through enhanced coordination and community-based services.

Coordinated Care

A dedicated care team works with you and your doctors to make sure all your health needs are connected, with no more falling through the cracks between specialists and providers.

Behavioral Health Integration

Mental health and substance use support are built directly into your primary care experience, so your whole health is treated, not just individual conditions.

Chronic Condition Focus

Specially designed for patients managing heart disease, cognitive conditions, or other complex chronic conditions requiring ongoing coordination across care teams.

No Extra Cost to You

If you're a Medicare beneficiary, participation in ACCESS is at no additional cost. Your existing Medicare benefits apply, so you simply receive more coordinated support.

What you can expect

Patients enrolled in ACCESS-participating practices benefit from a more proactive, personalized approach to care.

01

A named care coordinator

Someone who knows your history and can help navigate appointments, referrals, and follow-ups on your behalf.

02

Proactive outreach

Your care team checks in between visits, not just when you're sick, to help manage medications, symptoms, and transitions.

03

Integrated behavioral health

Access to mental health support within the same practice, with fewer referrals, fewer barriers, and more complete care.
