Urging Medicare to proceed cautiously when treading the pay-for-performance waters
Medicare just wants to see the bottom line: “I don’t care how people get there. I just care that they get there.”
Docs want some process measures built in: “We definitely want process measures “¦ and the current financial structure is also easier for measuring processes, because that’s the way we traditionally pay people.”
A difficult topic. Hopefully Medicare is listening, unlike other tyrannical insurance companies.
