This seventh publication in the DataPoints series uses data on imaging use and spending for Original Medicare (“fee-for-service”) beneficiaries to compare spending and use in Massachusetts to the rest of the U.S.

This brief is designed to increase understanding of the scope and scale of identified health care savings opportunities and provides a roadmap to reduce Massachusetts health care spending by $4.8 billion in five years.

This brief is the first in a series of resources that the HPC issued regarding the landscape of certified Massachusetts ACOs based on the information submitted by applicants for ACO Certification, combined with other publicly available information. The purpose of this series is to provide policymakers, health care providers, payers and purchasers, researchers, and other members of the interested public with new information and insights regarding the characteristics of certified ACOs.
