Vermont’s Green Mountain Care Board has approved a $620 million budget for OneCare Vermont, the state’s multi-payer accountable care organization.
The budget approved Thursday marks the beginning of a five-year experiment to transform health care in the state. The Burlington Free Press reports the new plan to lower the overall cost of health care will have pay doctors whether their patients are sick or not.
