2016 July - How Small Practices Can Thrive with MACRA - Headshots

On Thursday, July 7, 2016 at 3:30 PM ET (12:30 PM PT) I’ll be hosting a live video interview with the Chief Medical Officers of both Modernizing Medicine and Kareo. All of healthcare has been hit with the MACRA legislation and many talking heads are saying that MACRA is going to be a challenge for small practices. In this discussion, we’ll talk about how small practices can thrive within the changes that MACRA provides.

The great part is that you can join my live conversation with this panel of experts and even add your own comments to the discussion or ask them questions. All you need to do to watch live is visit this blog post on Thursday, July 7, 2016 at 3:30 PM ET (12:30 PM PT) and watch the video embed at the bottom of the post or you can subscribe to the blab directly. We’ll be doing a more formal interview for the first 30 minutes and then open up the Blab to others who want to add to the conversation or ask us questions. The conversation will be recorded as well and available on this post after the interview.

Here are a few more details about our panelists:

We hope you’ll join us live or enjoy the recorded version of our conversation. Plus, considering the length of the MACRA legislation, we welcome you to come and provide your insights into what the MACRA legislation means for small practices. We hope this will be an open discussion of the legislation and what impact it will have on small practices. Dr. Giannulli and Dr. Sherling are very well versed on the topic and will provide some tremendous insight into what to expect from MACRA.

If you’d like to see the archives of Healthcare Scene’s past interviews, you can find and subscribe to all of Healthcare Scene’s interviews on YouTube.

Finally, if you’d like to learn more about MACRA for small practices, I’ll be doing a detailed webinar on what we know about MACRA on July 13th at 1 PM ET (10 AM PT).

  • How can small practices thrive with MACRA?
    Easy answer, they can’t.
    I may watch the show, but in reality, these vendors can only hope that providers don’t quit everything. Its looking very ominous out here now. We are to expect vendors to address our usability and efficiency issues when they are hammered with this type of complex regulations and exceedingly short timelines? The EHR industry is doomed, and those that stay in the game trying to hamster wheel the constant regulatory changes all the while not listening to the needs of actual providers, its going to end, and end badly. I know they will all say, we are listening to providers, but in reality, they are not, they can’t they always fall back to the standard, well because of MU, ACI, PQRS, etc, they can’t do what we need. Or be in danger of loss of certification, etc. Its a nightmare out here. EHR vendors are in a tough spot, but its not getting better out here.
