The bill outlines the requirements for the Executive Office of Health and Human Services (EOHHS) to provide a detailed accounting of all funds transferred to the MassHealth Delivery System Reform Payment (DSRIP) Trust Fund. This includes expenditures for services provided to MassHealth beneficiaries, payments to Accountable Care Organizations (ACOs) and Community Partners (CPs), and investments in infrastructure and workforce capacity to support the implementation of these programs. The bill highlights the critical role of DSRIP investment funds in facilitating care coordination and the successful execution of the ACO and CP programs, which began full implementation in 2018.
Additionally, the bill specifies the financial details of DSRIP Trust Fund payments and revenues for state fiscal years 2017-2025, including various categories of expenditures and revenue sources. It notes that the timing of payments and revenue receipts can lead to fluctuations in the Trust Fund's balance. As the DSRIP program has concluded, MassHealth is required to recoup any unspent DSRIP dollars, which is reflected in the ACO & CP returned funds line. The bill also includes a new contact email for inquiries related to the report.
