APG Educational Series 2018: Alternative Payment Model Webinars with CMS

America’s Physician Groups is pleased to continue our webinar series with CMS for physicians and physician groups implementing the Medicare Access and CHIP Reauthorization Act (MACRA) through the Quality Payment Program (QPP), focusing on alternative payment models. Through a co-branding agreement with the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS), the sessions will combine CMS expertise on the regulation’s content with America’s Physician Groups’ members’ knowledge of how clinicians are responding on the ground to these important changes and care models.
