Aligning Payer-Provider Incentives to improve coding and ACA risk transfer payments
With the passage of the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act (ACA), many commercial health plans were subject to risk adjustment for the first time in 2014. Experience for 2014 showed the impact of risk adjustment can be substantial, and health plans operating under the ACA need a thoughtful, innovative plan for managing risk scores. While providers may not realize it yet, the increased focus by health plans on coding will also have implications for providers and the incentive structures they establish with health plans.
Consolidated appropriations act of 2016
On December 16, 2015, the House Appropriations Committee released the Consolidated Appropriations Act of 2016 (H.R. 2029) which includes both appropriations for the remainder of fiscal year 2016 but also a comprehensive tax package. Below is what is included in the health section of the appropriations bill and the health related tax provisions.
