CMS May Have Just Fixed One of the Biggest Payment Changes Nobody Talked About
The CY2027 Medicare Physician Fee Schedule Proposed Rule proposes a major reimbursement update for Post-Acute and Long-Term Care providers. Discover what has changed, why it matters, and how PALTC organizations can prepare for the future.
Why Interoperability Still Fails
Interoperability in healthcare exists. But in post-acute and long-term care, it is still failing where it matters most.
Over the past decade, hospitals advanced rapidly with federal investment and clear incentives. PALTC was excluded. The result is a sector managing some of the most medically complex patients in healthcare with some of the least connected systems.
Nearly 70% of hospital-to-SNF transfers include medication discrepancies. Only 16% of hospitals send summary of care records to most or all long-term care providers. And only 8% routinely receive data back.
The problem is not that technology is unavailable. It is that technology, workflow, and policy have never been aligned around how care actually works in these settings.
