This CLE course will guide counsel for healthcare providers and payors on managing the shift from fee-for-service to value-based alternative payment models (APMs). The panel will discuss the different payment models and the associated risks of the models. The panel will also examine the related regulatory issues, including Stark and AKS compliance, as well as valuation.

Description

Healthcare payors and providers are working to align financial incentives and allocate financial risk. As a result, providers managing patient care are absorbing more exposure to financial burden in exchange for greater potential financial gains. The healthcare industry continues to transition from a fee-for-service model to APMs.

Among the legal and regulatory issues relating to value-based contracting are state insurance laws, medical loss ratio (MLR) requirements, Medicare physician incentive plan (PIP) rules, the Anti-Kickback Statute (AKS), the Stark law, and the gainsharing portion of the Civil Monetary Penalties law.

Healthcare providers and their counsel need to understand the different options available along with the related regulatory issues for a health system to ensure compliance while shifting to a value-based model.

Listen as our authoritative panel discusses different payment models and the associated risks of the models. The panel will examine the related regulatory issues, including Stark and AKS compliance, as well as valuation, and provide insight for ensuring compliance.
