Stratum ACO
Stratum Med ACO sets itself apart with our influential physician-led medical groups and documented history of prioritizing collaboration. Our focus isn’t just on grouping together for financial savings, but rather on developing a community founded on genuine support.
CMS rules mandate that only unembargoed, final results may be made publicly available. Figures above are based on the most recent 2023 performance year figures.
Stratum Med ACO was founded to unite high-performing, independent physician groups on a single, powerful value-based payment platform. Today, we stand as one of the largest physician-owned, multi-specialty ACOs in the nation, managing approximately 70,000 attributed lives.
Unlike traditional models, we prioritize the practice over the numbers. Our physician-led approach ensures that clinical excellence drives financial performance, creating a collaborative environment where member groups share best practices to improve patient outcomes and operational efficiency.
The year 2025 marked a transformative milestone in our history. Following our successful acquisition from CVS Accountable Care, Stratum Med assumed full ownership and operational control of the ACO. This independence allows us to provide more tailored risk management and transparent analytics for our members.
We continue to invest in shared platforms and expert consulting to guide our members through the complexities of the CMS Enhanced Track. At Stratum Med ACO, we aren’t just participating in the future of healthcare, we are leading it.
2025 performance year, by the numbers:
- 7 participating, independent physician groups representing ~68K attributed lives:
