Andy Slavitt led the team that saved healthcare.gov. His legacy is just getting started‪.‬ NewCo

He was the man who led the team to fix healthcare.gov, and during his short tenure, CMS has implemented aggressive and some might say overly ambitious change. The Affordable Care Act was already a massive shift, but earlier this year CMS implemented MACRA, a new system that pays healthcare providers for the outcomes of their patients, rather than for transactions such as tests, hospital visits, and the like. It’s a major change, one that may or may not survive the new administration.
