are Centered Collaborative launched the new Practice
Options Initiative (POI) early this year and named Jaan
Sidorov, MD, as CEO. Pennsylvania Physician sat down
with Dr. Sidorov to find out more about this initiative, which aims
to help Pennsylvania physicians collaborate and succeed in delivery
systems and reimbursement models that are increasingly tied to
meeting defined quality and value metrics.
Currently, many physicians do not have the data aggregation
infrastructure, data analytic skills, and other capabilities needed
to successfully participate in the Medicare Access and CHIP
Reauthorization Act (MACRA), including the Merit-based
Incentive Payment System (MIPS) as well as evolve to an Advanced
Alternative Payment Model (AAPM).

To help all Pennsylvania physicians succeed in a value-based care
world of alphabet soup - MACRA, MIPS, and APMs - Care
Centered Collaborative is also creating a Management Services
Organization (MSO) that will offer services to all physicians across
the state. The Care Centered Collaborative now offers members
preferred access to industry-leading Medicare quality reporting
products and services for MIPS and the Quality Payment Program.
The services, available via a partnership with Mingle Analytics, can
help practices accurately report their data to Medicare. Learn more
at www.patientccc.com.
The POI also will provide practice options to physicians by
helping them establish Clinically Integrated Networks (CINs).
