The purpose of the sessions is to help clinics prepare for the transition to alternative payment models. All staff members – clinical and non-clinical – are encouraged to attend and bring a snack or lunch to the session they attend. All sessions are the same material, but presented at different locations to increase staff accessibility.
The first session will be held on Jan. 31, 2018, from noon to 1 p.m. at the USA Medical Center board room. The second session will take place on Feb. 1, 2018, from 9:45 a.m. to 10:45 a.m. at the Strada Patient Care Center in the first floor conference room. The final session will take place on Feb. 1, 2018, from noon to 1 p.m. at USA Children’s and Women’s Hospital in the Atlantis Room.
The goal of this informational opportunity is to increase awareness/knowledge of and help clinics prepare for the transition to alternative payment models. The session will focus on The Transforming Clinical Practice Initiative and how it relates to MIPS/MACRAs effect on outpatient reimbursement ~ value instead of volume, and address the question "How are we as a network positioning ourselves to do well?"
