Founder and CEO of a leading care coordination technology company discusses the buzz about the new Direct Contracting Model.

Hu founded CarePort while she was a graduate student at Harvard. The care coordination technology company was acquired a second time last fall by Wellsky, a healthcare technology company for $1.35 billion.

Senior Editor Peter Wehrwein spoke with Hu about the new CMS Direct Contracting Model, the latest addition to the value-based care menagerie, and what it means for ACOs, Medicare Advantage and care coordination. The model’s first performance year is scheduled to start next month.
