MO HealthNet Releases Alternative Payment Models Survey For Providers
The Missouri Department of Social Services’ MO HealthNet Division is seeking provider input through a new survey on alternative payment models, including reimbursement approaches beyond traditional fee-for-service models.
The survey is open through Friday, June 19, to hospitals, federally qualified health centers, primary care and specialty practices, and other providers with APM experience. Topics include prior experience with APMs, challenges and benefits of APMs, and the capacity to implement these models.
The survey should be filled out once per organization or practice, not per individual provider. Materials to support providers in filling out the survey are available.
Provider responses may help inform future MO HealthNet APM efforts and opportunities for ongoing engagement. The survey is being funded through the Rural Health Transformation Program. Questions may be directed to DSS.RHTP@dss.mo.gov.
