The healthcare industry has evolved in its push to tie payment to quality of care. With this evolution, which is closely integrated with the Medicare Access and Chip Reauthorization Act (MACRA), the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) has shifted more towards risk-based reimbursement.
With this evolution, the healthcare system will rely more heavily on data than ever before. Providers and payers that are able to adapt and execute a flexible, efficient data strategy will find themselves well-prepared to meet the challenges associated with this transition.
