Physicians need support to make advanced APMs succeed.
Physicians continue to face barriers and need support as they move to new payment models under MACRA, physician leaders told a congressional committee this morning.
The House Energy and Commerce Health Subcommittee held the hearing to receive an update on advanced alternative payment models (APM), one of the two payment tracks under the Medicare Access and CHIP Reauthorization Act (MACRA).
“Providers who are ready and willing to lead change continue to face obstacles to transforming care and payment and need additional support,” said Elizabeth Mitchell, vice chairperson of the Physician-Focused Payment Technical Advisory Committee (PTAC), the group set up under MACRA to evaluate new payment models submitted by physician groups.
