On July 17th, New York State announced the approval of the annual update to the Value-Based Payment (VBP) Roadmap for Year 3. The Roadmap is part of the Delivery System Reform Incentive Payment (DSRIP) program and outlines the State’s plan to make 80% of Medicaid managed care payments through VBP arrangements by the end of the DSRIP waiver period in 2020. The updated Roadmap was approved by the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services on July 6th.
An overview of major changes made in the latest update is attached. Most updates were clarifications or expanded discussions of existing requirements. For more information, refer to the full updated Roadmap (available here) or to SPG’s separate summary of the full document, which is also attached.
