Bill would scale back Green Mountain Care Board oversight, create ACO certification and fees

A bill reviewed at the House Health Care Committee meeting on April 29 would remove several oversight duties from the Green Mountain Care Board and create a new certification-and-fee framework for accountable care organizations operating in Vermont. The bill, S.63 as passed by the Senate, would expand the types of ACOs the board can certify and set one-time and annual fees to support that work.
