CHA reminds members to register for a member forum on April 29 from 11 a.m. – noon (PT) on the proposed rule implementing mandatory payment models for covered Part B prescription drugs provided in physician offices, hospital outpatient departments and certain drugs furnished through durable medical equipment. The proposed five-year model would first test whether lowering the current Part B drug add-on payment would push prescribing incentives toward lower-cost drugs, and would later expand to include testing of value-based purchasing models for Part B drugs. Participants should register by noon April 28 at www.surveymonkey.com/r/partbdrugmodel. Dial-in information and materials will be distributed by close of business on April 28.
