2022 Stronger - PH405 - Putting the Backbone in Our Spine Program - On Demand
The Medical University of South Carolina’s Spine Center began participating in the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services’ (CMS) Spine Procedures Bundle Payments for Care Improvement Advanced Initiative in January 2021. Since that time, the team has implemented some of the CMS best practices, with the addition of a dedicated care coordinator and nurse navigator. The addition of these roles has helped engage patients throughout the course of their care and thus decreased readmissions, lengths of stay and costs.
Target Audience
- Healthcare Executives
- Nurses
- Physicians
