Deadline Extended for Request for Information: Specialty Practitioner Payment Model Opportunities


The Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) are considering policy options for the development of innovative payment and service delivery models for specialty practitioner services in the outpatient setting. Due to the high level of interest from the public and our desire to receive detailed comments and feedback on the models discussed in the Request for Information, CMS is extending the deadline for comments through April 10, 2014.
CMS is seeking input from stakeholders on two potential models:
1) A procedural episode-based payment model
2) A complex and chronic disease management episode-based payment model


Stakeholders can access the Request for Information and submit comments by visiting the CMS Innovation Center Specialty Practitioner Payment Model Opportunities web page. To ensure consideration of your comments, please submit responses to CMS by 5pm EDT on April 10, 2014. All questions in the Request for Information are optional. There is no need to respond to all questions for your submission to be successful. For any additional questions, please email SpecialtyCareModels@cms.hhs.gov.
