Discount deadline for sleeping rooms is Monday, Sept. 26

CHA has developed a seminar to help participating hospitals and their staff understand the clinical and financial risks associated with the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services’ (CMS) Comprehensive Care for Joint Replacement (CJR) program. Implementing CJR —Strategies for Success will be held on Oct. 25 from 8:30 a.m. – 4 p.m. in Los Angeles.

The nationwide mandatory episode payment model, which took effect April 1, impacts 135 California hospitals in three metropolitan service areas. The Implementing CJR—Strategies for Success seminar will provide participants with the knowledge needed to manage patient care, foster physician alignment and develop effective partnerships with post-acute care providers. The program features state and national faculty, each with an area of expertise in episode care payment models. Session topics include: CJR program overview; using data to identify opportunities and risks; creating or strengthening your post-acute care strategy; legal considerations including collaborator agreements, gainsharing and program waivers; and planning for CJR implementation in your facility.
