Regulatory Matters in Healthcare

Policy, regulatory, and legislative changes have always been drivers of change in the healthcare industry.  This has perhaps been more true than ever since the  passage of the  American Recovery and Reinvestment Act (ARRA) in 2009 and the Affordable Care Act (ACA) in 2010. 

More recently, in April 2015, the Medicare Access and CHIP Reauthorization Act (MACRA) was passed by Congress with strong bi-partisan support and signed in to law by the President.  This law promises to fundamentally change the way healthcare is evaluated and paid for in the United States.

There are three important topics affected by MACRA and its related CMS rules, regulations, and propsals where JCS can help:

• Interoperability
• Meaningful Use, and the transition to the Advancing Care Information Program
• The Medicare Quality Payment Program (QPP), including MIPS and APM
