With Medicare patients seeing specialists more frequently, #PrimaryCare teams must coordinate with more specialists than ever before, increasing the likelihood of fragmented care. To reduce fragmented care, CMS just announced a Request for Information (RFI) for a potential ambulatory specialty care model. It would test leveraging the Merit-based Incentive Payment System (MIPS) Value Pathways (MVPs) to increase the engagement of specialists in #ValueBasedCare and expand incentives for primary and #SpecialtyCare coordination.

Basic Health Access
1wCMS designs have far to go to reach health equity. CMS designers seem out of touch with what is most important. The purpose of health policy should be to support those delivering the care, especially for the poor and the elderly. Where the elderly, poor, disabled, and public plan patients are concentrated, we have major deficits of health care spending, access, workforce, health care jobs, and health care economics. Representative Doggett is on target about CMMI and Medicare Advantage at this post. The part about discrimination against those most behind could be fleshed out more since the impacts are specific to providers that care for populations inherently lower in outcomes and drivers of outcomes is important to understand. CMS must consider the inside out perspective and impacts on delivery team members. Designs have progressively made their home and practice environments more toxic. Why give more multitasking to team members with added duties before, during, and after encounters plus cutting Medicaid spending by 3% that will shape even worse. https://www.linkedin.com/posts/robert-bowman-3b271933_members-urge-reform-of-medicare-advantage-activity-7215000721300107264-ducr?utm_source=share&utm_medium=member_desktop
