Palliative Care’s Role in the Changing Face of Healthcare
Providers can improve quality and cost category scores by including palliative care specialists to care teams treating seriously ill patients. Researchers at the Center to Advance Palliative Care explored how palliative care can boost success in MACRA’s Merit-based Incentive Payment System (MIPS), Medicare’s Oncology Care Model, and the Medicare Shared Savings Program (MSSP). Join us to learn how palliative care can mitigate the need for crisis intervention, thus simultaneously improving quality and cost.
