AUGS Alternative Payment Model: SUI Model Discussion and Feedback (2) - Video

Video Transcription

Video Summary

The video discusses the importance of identifying opportunities for improvement in patient care quality. By analyzing data, such as claims data, professionals can uncover areas where avoidable costs can be reduced. They aim to eliminate variations in clinical practice and incentivize clinicians to make more cost-effective decisions. The goal is to create a model where the money saved from avoidable costs can be used to cover services that are currently not reimbursed, such as post-operative check-ins. Payment models also involve negotiating how the money saved is distributed, such as through management fees or shared savings. The focus is on evidence-based care and patient management fees to cover costs throughout the year.
