AJMC Creates MACRA Compendium for Payers, Providers During Transition to Value-Based Care
PLAINSBORO, N.J. (PRWEB) December 22, 2016 -- If you still don’t understand the Medicare Access and CHIP Reauthorization Act (MACRA), you’re not alone. While small practices have the greatest learning curve, even larger health systems may benefit from a convenient source of information on the 2015 law, which takes effect January 1, 2017.
With that in mind, The American Journal of Managed Care (AJMC) has created the MACRA Compendium, a resource center on that brings together news, commentary, and multimedia content on the law, which pushes Medicare’s transition from fee-for-service to value-based payment. You can find the center at http://www.ajmc.com/compendium/macra.
The MACRA Compendium features content from:
• The fall meeting of AJMC’s ACO & Emerging Healthcare Delivery Coalition, which discussed how accountable care organizations have laid the groundwork for MACRA.
• Commentary from several AJMC contributors, including Greg Fulton of Philips Wellcentive and heath information technology strategist Mark Heaney.
• Video interviews with CMS’ Kate Goodrich, MD, on how physicians can successfully adapt to the Merit-Based Incentive Payment System.
To contribute commentary to the MACRA Compendium, contact Editorial Director Nicole Beagin at (609) 716-7777 x 131.
