@aafp No, CPC+ practices are not eligible to participate in year one. CMS anticipates opening a second round of applications in 2020 and CPC+ practices will be able to apply at this time. #AAFPFMX #AAFPChat

@aafp Yes, CMS will recruit payers in the 26 PCF regions to participate. You should evaluate the number of payers in your market moving to value-based payment when considering if this model is right for you. #AAFPFMX #AAFPChat

@aafp Any of the following would be considered experience with VBP: some level of capitation, pay for performance, shared savings, performance-based incentive payments, and other alternatives to FFS. #AAFPFMX #AAFPChat

@aafp Educate your patients on selecting their primary care clinician on https://t.co/3IIoTcep9F. Voluntary alignment is the first step in beneficiary attribution for PCF and supersedes claims-based attribution. #AAFPFMX #AAFPChat

@aafp Make sure all your traditional Medicare patients have received an Annual Wellness Visit in the last year. AWVs are an opportunity to capture diagnosis codes for accurate HCC scores and ensure those patients are attributed to your practice. #AAFPFMX #AAFPChat

@aafp Practices also need to assess/support patients’ psychosocial needs, have a regular process for patient/caregiver engagement, and set goals to continuously improve on outcome measures. #AAFPFMX #AAFPChat

@aafp Practices must provide 24/7 access to a clinician with real-time EHR access, risk-stratified care management, and integrated behavioral health. #AAFPFMX #AAFPChat

@aafp 3) Examine your current revenue, compare FFS revenue for primary care services to expected payment under PCF, and evaluate your ability to take on limited downside risk (downside risk capped at 10% in PCF). #AAFPFMX #AAFPChat

@aafp 2) Know the average HCC score for Medicare patients in your practice. This score will determine your monthly payment level in Primary Care first. Use your NPI to lookup your average HCC score here. #AAFPFMX #AAFPChat

@aafp I have three recommendations: 1) Know the number of traditional Medicare patients in your practice. You need a minimum of 125 attributed patients to participate. #AAFPFMX #AAFPChat
