8: Accelerating and Aligning Clinical Episode Payment Models: Opportunities and Challenges

This is an interactive forum for all LAN Summit attendees to learn about the purpose and goals of episode payment as an alternative payment model (APM), as well as the efforts of the Clinical Episode Payment (CEP) Work Group to develop recommendations on design strategies for implementing episode payment for joint replacement, maternity care, and care for Coronary Artery Disease (CAD).  Panel members will react to the work group’s recommendations, and then discuss questions posed by the moderator that allows them to refer to their own experiences with implementing episode payment.
