Overview / Abstract: |
Recent legislation and policy has fast-tracked the shift of healthcare payment from volume- to value-based reimbursement under the Medicare Access and CHIP Reauthorization Act (MACRA) for oncology care. Today, oncologists have the option to be reimbursed for Medicare patients under the CMS Oncology Care Model (OCM), an alternative payment model spanning a 6-month chemotherapy episode-of-care. This activity will provide insight into the program’s structure and challenges. It will also review new provider models and use of data systems to improve cancer care delivery. Educational Objectives -Incorporate treatment pathways and quality measures to ensure patients receive guideline-consistent care -Understand the development of quality measures as a component of new payment models |
