A shift toward more integrated and value-driven care is redefining how healthcare is delivered and experienced.
ACCESS — Advancing Chronic Care with Effective, Scalable Solutions is a 10-year voluntary model launched by the CMS Innovation Center.
Today, more than two-thirds of Medicare beneficiaries live with chronic conditions like high blood pressure, diabetes, chronic pain, or depression. Traditional fee-for-service Medicare has not kept pace with how modern, technology-supported care is actually delivered. ACCESS changes this — by creating a payment pathway that rewards measurable improvement in patients' health, delivered through digital tools, remote monitoring, and flexible care models.
ACCESS focuses on conditions that together affect the majority of Medicare patients — organized into four clinical tracks that guide how care is structured and how outcomes are measured.
Participating care organizations receive recurring Medicare payments — called Outcome-Aligned Payments (OAPs) — for managing patients' chronic conditions. Payment is tied to whether patients actually improve: lower blood pressure, better HbA1c, reduced pain scores, improved mood.
MedTechMD has developed a suite of digital health, interoperability and patient engagement technologies that are purpose-aligned with the ACCESS Model's requirements. We don't offer a generic platform , we offer a ready-to-deploy set of tools designed around CMS's outcome-focused, interoperability-first vision for chronic care.
Supports IAL2/AAL2 digital identity standards, enabling patients and providers to authenticate seamlessly across networks.
Supports FHIR R4 APIs, Bulk FHIR, and structured data exchange using LOINC, RxNorm, and SNOMED.
A patient-controlled, secure, and interoperable health record with full audit transparency of who accessed data, when, and why.
Enables patients to share their health data with providers, ACOs, and care teams.
Device-agnostic integration that allows patients to collect health data from wearables, blood pressure monitors, glucometers and share
Transmits health data reliably even in low-connectivity environments like rural and underserved Medicare populations.
Whether your organization is preparing an application or planning for implementation, MedTechMD can help you get there with less friction and more confidence.
We help you map your care workflows to CMS's outcome-focused structure and demonstrate operational readiness in your application.
Our technology stack is already aligned with HIPAA, FDA, and FHIR standards. We ensure your organization meets every compliance requirement without starting from scratch.
ACCESS requires capabilities that go beyond what an EHR/EMR alone can provide — asynchronous care, app-based data sharing, continuous patient engagement. MedTechMD complements your existing systems, not replaces them.
