Medicare patients with serious health conditions benefit from chronic care management - it's time to remove the co-insurance requirement so patients can receive the best care. @theAMGA @RepDelBene morningconsult.com/opinions/for-m…


Thanks for having me on the show @2healthguru!

#Medicalgroup investment in #physicians is improving. Median total investment in integrated systems increased 21% from 2017 to 2018, while independent practices also saw a slight improvement, @theAMGA reports. | #Healthcare #RevCycle ow.ly/v7c230pcq2D

"AMGA members are looking to Medicare Advantage because Fee-For-Service (FFS) payments are declining. Our 4th Annual Risk Survey showed medical groups predict only 29% of Medicare revenues will be FFS based by 2020," said @jpenso1 while opening day 2 of @BMAlliance's #MASummit.

Last night, @RepDelBene introduced a bill to help @theamga members manage #ChronicCare by removing the cost-sharing obligation on CCM services. Currently, only around 650,000 out of 35 million Medicare beneficiaries utilize these chronic care services. bit.ly/2YgrDrI

A new bipartisan Alexander-Murray proposal addresses health care costs: Curtailing surprise medical bills. Creating a national health care claims database. Requiring insurers to be more transparent about provider networks and expected patient costs. alexander.senate.gov/public/index.c…


Today's HELP package from @SenAlexander and @SenMurray includes sweeping legislation to #LowerHealthCareCosts by requiring payers to share claims data, an @theAMGA priority. Providing access to this data is a huge win for both patients and their providers.


This morning, Dr. Scott Hines of @CrystalRun and @theAMGA testified in front of @SenateFinance on the implemention of #MACRA. We need Congress to ensure CMS implements this program to create meaningful and realistic incentives to move to value.

This #diabetes prediction model is a prime example of how @theAMGA is working to foster innovation and expand #populationhealth efforts for our members. Bravo, team!

Thank you @BMAlliance for a great briefing and panel discussion on the #MedicareAdvantage program. MA continues to be where @theAMGA members are moving toward because it directly aligns payment and value while improving quality and patient experience. #AMGAontheHill

AMGA CEO Jerry Penso shares insights he learned after visiting with more than 65 AMGA medical groups and their leadership. Good reading.

During his first year as AMGA CEO, @jpenso1 traveled across the country to visit AMGA members, so he could hear their biggest concerns. Recently, Dr. Penso sat down with @HealthLeaders' Clinical Care Editor, @cccheney to share what he learned. bit.ly/2S3dPgl

Chair of the @theAMGA board, Dr. Ashok Rai @preveaceo will testify Thursday before @HouseCommerce on AMGA's views on #MIPS. MIPS needs to serve as a transition tool to value, as Congress intended. Excluding more than half of providers will not get us there.
