Critical Issues In Eyecare: An Md/od Conversation

Join us for this important discussion on payment models in the eyecare industry. Lawyer Allison Shuren joins regular hosts Mitchel Jackson, MD and Nate Bonilla-Warford, OD to talk about about the change payment landscape. New payment models for eyecare are discussed, such as pay-for-performance, bundled disease state management, capitated risk arrangements, and collaborative care.     Topics include: Is pay-for-performance a new trend? Or an old one "on steroids"?  How can doctors push back against these changes?   Can these changes be expected to impact the relationship between optometrists and ophthalmologists?   Do these payment systems essentially mandate EMR in the practice?   And, the million dollar question, what affect will the US election have on the new payment systems?    About Allison Shuren:   Allison Shuren co-chairs the Life Sciences and Healthcare Regulation Practice and advises a wide range of health care clients on regulatory, compliance, enforcement, and legislative matters.
