CMS' recently extended the deadline to file the BPCI program application, which gives healthcare organizations even more time to evaluate the four possible BPCI options and determine if they should participate. The Healthcare Intelligence Network webinar is scheduled for 1:30 pm Eastern.

"The industry demand for value-based, coordinated and efficient healthcare has resulted in new reimbursement models such as bundled payments, also known as episodic payments or case rates. Having had a front row seat when CMS first tested bundled payments two years ago, Jim Reilly is ideally positioned to advise healthcare organizations on this four-part program."
