Woodbridge, New Jersey (PRWEB) January 12, 2017

Conventus, New Jersey's premier professional liability insurer formed by and governed through an alliance of independent physicians, will present at Sax LLP's seminar event, MACRA & MIPS: A New Horizon for Medicare Providers. This educational session, presented by Carolyn Hoitela, Director of Practice Management at Conventus, will help physicians and practice administrators in New Jersey gain a stronger understanding of MACRA's impending changes in 2017. The seminar is scheduled for 8:00 AM – 10:00 AM ET at The Venetian in Garfield, NJ on January 19, 2017.

Hosted by the Sax Healthcare Industry Service Team, the MACRA and MIPS seminar gathers medical professionals and industry thought leaders together to discuss how the payment model system changes will affect medical practices. Attendees of the seminar will learn key objectives of MACRA, the differences between payment model tracks, and how changes will affect their practice in the upcoming reporting year.

Topics Covered

• Overview of MACRA objectives and final rules
• Transition from current reporting procedures to new model of care
• Merit-Based Incentive Payment System vs. Alternative Payment Models
• Changes to Meaningful Use (MU), Physician Quality Reporting System (PQRS), and Value-Based Modifier (VBM) programs

Thirteen years ago when Conventus was formed to address a medical professional liability insurance crisis in New Jersey, the focus was solely on helping physicians succeed – and that fundamental concept has only grown stronger over the years.
