The Transforming Episode Accountability Model went live Jan 1, 2026. Enter your case mix below to model your exposure across all five surgical bundles — stop-loss scales from ~5% in PY2 toward 20% by PY3–5.
Edit annual volume and regional bundle price for each episode. Totals and phase-in exposure recalculate as you type. Pre-filled with a mid-size community-hospital example.
Default bundle prices are regional-average estimates. Replace with your actual CMS-set target prices for a calibrated number. Exposure = bundle revenue × downside stop-loss cap.
The formula measures how much is at risk. Your architecture determines how much risk you actually run.
Integrated puts episode data in the same canonical model as pop-health analytics — cross-cuts answer in one query. Parallel means manual reconciliation and "why don't the numbers match" every QBR.
Vendor-supplied is easy but a black box; you wait for releases when CMS shifts methodology. Co-built is slower to ship, faster to adapt — run what-ifs immediately.
Bolted-on ships fast but is operational debt forever. Embedded in existing care-coordination costs more upfront and lifts your Composite Quality Score, which factors in engagement.
I run 3-month bounded engagements with community-hospital CIOs on TEAM readiness — diagnostic first, co-build with your clinical / finance / analytics leaders, a delivery system that stays after I leave. $25–40K/month with land-and-expand if the first cycle works.
