Policy Briefing: Medicare’s Impact on Primary Care

UNTIL THE BRIEFING
Welcome & Opening Comments
Speakers
Corinne Lewis
Assistant Vice President, Delivery System Reform, The Commonwealth Fund
Overview of Medicare Physician Payment

Join us for the opening keynote where we will delve into the historical overview of the Medicare Physician Fee Schedule. This session will explore the historical trends and their impact on primary care. Our goal is to highlight how the current structure of the fee schedule leads to underinvestment in primary care and, equally important, creates barriers to innovation and value-based financing designs
