To amend title XVIII of the Social Security Act to establish a full risk ACO program.

This bill would make changes to Medicare (which is part of the Social Security Act) to create a program called a "full risk ACO program." ACO stands for Accountable Care Organization, which is a group of doctors and hospitals that work together to care for patients, and "full risk" means these groups would take on more financial responsibility for the cost and quality of that care. No official summary is available for this bill.
