This role supports the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) Transforming Episode Accountability Model (TEAM), an episode-based care model designed to enhance quality, coordination, and patient experience while reducing unnecessary utilization and readmissions.
The APP will play a critical role in guiding patients through the full surgical journey, from pre-operative assessment and optimization through recovery and post-discharge follow-up.

In addition to managing a panel of medium- and high-risk patients, the APP will serve as a clinical resource for the broader TEAM program, helping to refine care pathways, support program development, mentor colleagues, and advance evidence-based practices that improve patient outcomes, care coordination, and continuity across the Mass General Brigham system.
