In accountable, value-based healthcare, a shift from reactive care to preventive, age-friendly approaches that focus on mobility and what matters to patients can reduce utilization, lower fall-related costs, and support better long-term health and well-being.

The benefits of increasing physical activity, maintaining function, and reducing fall risk in older adults is supported by extensive peer-reviewed research and USPSTF recommendations. Additionally, CMS/CMMI’s focus on evidence-based prevention and emerging models such as CARA’s RISE to Age in Place Episode further elevate mobility and fall prevention.

Attendees will explore:
• The growing health system costs of inactivity and falls
• How the Age Friendly framework supports mobility and prevention
• CMS/CMMI’s direction with risk related to fall prevention
• Approaches taken by proactive risk-bearing healthcare organizations

Key Takeaways:
1. Medicare risk-based payment models related to mobility and prevention are coming.
2. The 4Ms of age friendly care include mobility, which supports prevention.
3. Risk bearing organizations can lead the way in measuring and managing fall risk.
