The Innovation Center Releases EOM Factsheets

Last year, the Center for Medicare & Medicaid Innovation (the Innovation Center) announced the Enhancing Oncology Model (EOM)—the Oncology Care Model's successor. Now, the Innovation Center has released two resources to help EOM stakeholders understand the model's health equity strategy and new enhanced services requirement.

• The Health Equity Strategy Factsheet describes key elements of this strategy, including information on health-related social needs in the model and a review of data collection and reporting requirements.
• The Implementing Electronic Patient-Reported Outcomes (ePROs) Factsheet includes more information on the benefits of ePROs and the EOM's gradual implementation requirement of these.

The application period for the EOM closed on October 10, 2022, and the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services is in the process of reviewing submitted applications in advance of the model launch on July 1, 2023.
