SUMMARY:Proposed Rules on Medicaid Payments\, Access and Quality: Implications for Health Care Stakeholders
DESCRIPTION:Manatt Health \nOn Thursday\, April 27\, the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) released two highly anticipated proposed rules (here and here). Together\, these would reshape the federal regulatory landscape for Medicaid and the Children’s Health Insurance Program (CHIP)\, particularly with respect to standards for ensuring access to care\, transparency and oversight of provider payment rates\, engagement of Medicaid enrollees and the public\, quality measurement\, and program accountability. \nIn a new webinar\, Manatt Health will review some of CMS’s key proposals and discuss the implications for stakeholders\, including Medicaid and CHIP beneficiaries\, health care providers\, state Medicaid agencies\, and Medicaid managed care plans. Click here to register for this free program. The webinar will include discussion of CMS’s proposals to: \n\nModify the guardrails and areas of state flexibility regarding state directed payments (SDPs)\, a mechanism that states can use to establish parameters for managed care plans’ payments to providers\nEnhance transparency regarding provider rates and require the publication of comparative rate analyses for certain services\, in both the fee-for-service (FFS) and managed care delivery systems\nStrengthen the framework for monitoring access to care\nEstablish new requirements and processes regarding quality standards and performance measurement for managed care plans\n\nEven if you can’t make our live airing on June 20\, register now for the free webinar and you’ll receive a link to view the session on demand. \nNote: CMS’s proposed rules also include a number of proposals aimed at enhancing access and quality for home and community-based services (HCBS). Manatt discussed those proposals in a separate webinar.

SUMMARY:"Shared Decision-Making" - What Does This Actually Mean and What Does It Look Like?
DESCRIPTION:Courageous Parents Network \n“Shared Decision-Making” – what does this actually mean and what does it look like? As caregivers of seriously ill children – and as pediatric clinicians – we make decisions in both our heads and our heart\, and they aren’t always aligned. Nor are parents and clinicians always aligned. Is it possible for both the clinician and the parents/caregivers to share a decision on behalf of the child? What happens when the two parties aren’t on the same page? Which party should be driving the decision-making process? \nIn truth\, shared decision-making looks different depending on the situation. As with everything we try to do at CPN\, we will move beyond the jargon to get both concrete and relational about decision-making when caring for a child with serious illness. This session will explore the dimensions of shared decision-making and give participants a framework for considering the variables (including medical facts\, personal values\, personal preferences and risk tolerance). \nThe event is featuring Kate Nelson\, MD – Staff Physician\, Pediatric Palliative Care at Toronto’s Sick Kids for Children Hospital. \nRegister here >>
