Abstract

Interview with Robert Mechanic on what happens when patients are treated by multiple providers participating in different Medicare payment models. (09:58)Download As Medicare expands its new payment programs, more patients will be treated by different providers participating in different payment models. Such overlaps make evaluation of outcomes difficult and create financial distortions that may undermine the models' goals.
