  The movement toward reforming the payment system is accelerating rapidly, and Massachusetts is a national leader in changing from a fee-for-service to a value-based payment model. The Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services has challenged the healthcare system to achieve the three-part aim:

  • better care for individuals, 
    
  • better health for populations, and 
    
  • reduced expenditures for CMS program beneficiaries. 

  This conference will address why payment reform is needed, and explore how to change the payment system while improving quality, reducing costs, and ensuring adequate access to care.
