Riassunto

Congress has adopted sweeping changes to the Medicare program that will have a significant impact on integrated delivery systems, physicians, IPA's, medical groups, hospitals, and health plans. This legislation is a significant step by the federal government as it provides the framework to transition the Medicare program from an open access fee-for-service system to a managed care-oriented program. This concise guide to developing and achieving certifications will be invaluable to understanding the new PSO regulations.
