Yesterday @CMSGov changed the name of the #MeaningfulUse EHR program to the “Promoting Interoperabilty” program & my only response after reading the rule today is to quote Wayne’s World: “Nice name...not!”
It’s tax day. The gov’t spends $1 trillion/yr on healthcare. Check out my new @NextGen blog on Trump’s 2018 healthcare reboot. xitter.cf/nextgen/status/9863377…
2017 was a year of tremendous uncertainty for healthcare providers. Check out our latest blog by @ChrisEmper "The #Trump Administration’s 2018 Healthcare Reboot." bit.ly/2HIWx4q #BelieveinBetter

New @CMSGov data shows Medicare Advantage & ACOs now cover over 50% of all Medicare beneficiaries with both programs still growing
Participation in Medicare’s largest ACO program up 17% on 1/1/18 & now covers 10.5 mil people, yesterday @CMSGov announces launch/expansion of new 5 yr bundle program...not sure why industry reports keep saying transition to value based care has slowed under Trump Admin? xitter.cf/cmsgovpress/status/950…
