Description
Consolidation and partnerships are only the beginning of MACRA's fast-approaching wave of change.  With the 2017 reporting year having began January 1, the financial implications year over year for top performers represents millions of dollars in potential revenue-- but negative adjustments present a sizeable risk as well.  Relationships with physician organizations have already evolved, with notable trends of small practice consolidation, new physician affilliations, association affiliations, and unique business agreements between physician groups and hospitals.  What must senior leaders be aware of to succeed?
 
In this engaging session, hear from ACO leader and a key member of one of the top national performers in the Medicare Shared Savings Program (MSSP), Dr. Jim Whitfill, as he discusses the financial risk and capital requirements for value-based care that will continue to drive consolidation and partnership among physician groups.  Listen in as Dr. Whitfill identifies key employment issues, shining a spotlight on the shared revenue balancing equation.
