Abstract

This article addresses two components of the new governing architecture (NGA) that help to reform the delivery of health care and to control costs of the health care system: the Center for Medicare and Medicaid Innovation (CMMI) and the Independent Payment Advisory Board (IPAB). The republican controlled federal government has partially disassembled these two components, threatening the effectiveness of federal delivery system reform and cost control initiatives.
