Abstract
Abstract Introduction The Advancing Chronic Care with Effective Scalable Solutions (ACCESS) Model is a new outcome-aligned payment model intended to support technology-enabled chronic disease management among Traditional Medicare beneficiaries. However, the national population potentially eligible for ACCESS remains poorly characterized, particularly those with multiple chronic conditions. Methods Using nationally representative survey data from the 2023 Medical Expenditure Panel Survey, we described the health characteristics and health care utilization patterns of TM beneficiaries potentially eligible for the ACCESS Model Results 56.3% of beneficiaries (estimated 9.1 million) were potentially eligible to participate in the model, 24% of beneficiaries (estimated 2.2 million) had multiple chronic conditions, and beneficiary telehealth use for cardio-kidney-metabolic and musculoskeletal conditions was limited. Conclusion The sizable proportion of TM beneficiaries potentially eligible for more than one ACCESS track suggests a deliberate approach to care coordination to support technology-enabled chronic disease management in older adults.
