Value-Based Shift: Inside the CMS TEAM Transformation

What this episode covers

In this episode of Value-Based Care Insights, host Daniel Marino explores the newly introduced the CMS Transforming Episode Accountability Model (TEAM)—a mandatory five-year, episode-based pricing model, informed by earlier initiatives from the CMS Innovation Center. Designed to cover high-volume, high-cost surgical procedures, TEAM represents a significant shift in how hospitals and providers approach bundled payments. Join Daniel and special guest Lucy Zielinski, an expert in value-based programs and HCC coding , as they unpack what the TEAM model entails and what participating hospitals must do to prepare for the January 1, 2026 implementation. Gain insights how this model influences financial performance, drives care coordination redesign, and introduces new incentives and penalties. Whether you are a healthcare leader, provider, or payer, don’t miss this overview of one of CMS’s initiatives shaping the future of value-based care.
