CMS Publishes CY2021 Final Rule

The Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) has publicly stated they cannot supply analysis projections with any certainty.Consult the experts to assess the direct and indirect financial ramifications of this Final Rule.

Here’s our three-step call to action:
  1. Don’t panic! Freeze physician wRVU payment rates and take time to analyze the situation.
  2. Analyze. Run CPT level scenario projections to assess the top-line revenue changes and the associated physician compensation impact.
  3. Implement a plan. Review the results and weigh the alternatives. Select the appropriate course of action and move forward with implementation. Proactively communicate the plan with your physicians and administrators.
