Spotlight on Science Meetings, Conferences and Events brings you information on the following:What is MACRA and how does HIPAA apply?

This lesson will provide a crash course on the Medicare Access and CHIP Reauthorization (MACRA) and how this replaces the old Medicare reimbursement schedule with a new “pay-for-performance” program.

We will be discussing the positives and negatives of both the “pay-for-performance” programs (MIPS) Merit based Incentive Payment System and (APM’s) Advanced Alternative Payment Models.

This HIPAA compliance webinar will also cover how HIPAA specifically applies to MACRA and the importance of providing the government “proof” of HIPAA compliance.  

I will explain specifically how this is done and why HIPAA is a core measurement under MACRA.
