In the near future, the Green Mountain Care Board is expected to vote on a dramatic change in the way that health care providers are reimbursed, to reward quality of care, and not the quantity of services that are provided.
We’re talking about the all-payer model for health care funding, what it means, and what the implications of the switch could be.
We're joined by Green Mountain Care Board chairman Al Gobeille. Also by Paul Harrington, executive vice president of the Vermont Medical Society; Julia Shaw, health care policy analyst at Vermont Legal Aid's Office of the Health Care Advocate; and Dr. Paul Reiss; chief medical officer at HealthFirst, Vermont's independent practice association.
