CMS Center for Medicare and Medicaid Innovation on Thursday signed off on a three-year extension of the Comprehensive Care for Joint Replacement model.
It will now last through the end of 2024. The final rule changes the definition of an episode to include outpatient hip and knee replacements, modifies how the agency calculates target prices and reduces the number of reconciliation periods from two to one. It also makes changes to beneficiary notice requirements, gainsharing caps and the appeals process. Regulators expect the extension to save the Medicare program about $217 million over three years.

Bengaluru (Karnataka) [India], March 9 (ANI/NewsVoir): A book authored by Dr Narayan Hulse- Director - Department of Orthopedics and Joint Replacement at Fortis Hospital, Bannerghatta Road was unveiled by Tejasvi Surya - Member of Parliament - Bengaluru South constituency at his office here today.
The book titled, Joint Replacement: A Patient s Handbook, aims to address and answer various concerns among the patient community pertaining to joint replacements.
Tejasvi Surya, Member of Parliament was the first one to receive a copy of the book authored by Dr Hulse. Having performed about 4000 joint replacement procedures in Bangalore, noticed a similar kind of misperception and variable acceptance towards joint replacement in my patients. While I try to address each patient s doubt and concerns, I thought a patient handbook on joint replacement will be helpful in answering all their questions and help my patients in every possible way.
