The American Medical Association (AMA) and The Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) will be holding a provider call on Monday, January 23, 2012, 7:00 pm, to discuss the Accountable Care Organization (ACO) Advanced Payment program. This is a great opportunity for physicians interested in learning more about and applying for the ACO Advanced Payment program.
CMS officials will be able to answer participants’ questions about the program and how physician-led Medicare ACOs can qualify for up to $250,000 in up-front payments and more than $1 million in monthly payments through this new initiative.
The provider call is free to AMA members and non-members. The call is hosted in conjunction with the Medical Group Management Association (MGMA). Click here to register.
NCMS members can also refer to the Accountable Care section of our website to learn more about this initiative.
