Urogyn Practice Management Course 2017-AUGS Alternative Payment Model: SUI Model Discussion and Feedback (4)

Video Transcription

Video Summary

In this video, Jerry Lauder and John Shepard discuss their work on alternative payment models (APMs) as part of the OGS Payment Reform Committee. The committee is a volunteer group composed of a diverse range of individuals from private practice to academics. Their goal is to develop APMs for the OGS society and educate its members on physician payment reform.<br /><br />The committee started in 2016 and initially focused on developing an APM for stress urinary incontinence (SUI). They collected and categorized different SUI scenarios submitted by committee members, considering factors such as the evaluation and treatment steps, variations in practice, and potential cost and quality indicators.<br /><br />To analyze the cost and effectiveness of different interventions, the committee used cost-effectiveness modeling. They created decision trees to represent different treatment strategies and calculated the weighted costs associated with each one. Through modeling, they hope to identify ways to reduce costs while providing evidence-based care.<br /><br />The committee plans to further refine their APM models, obtain funding and input from relevant committees and SIGs, and ultimately submit their models to payers and CMS.<br /><br />No credits were granted in the video.
