The Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) will host a webinar on August 18, 2020 to provide an overview of the Community Health Access and Rural Transformation (CHART) Model.
The CHART Model will test whether upfront investments, predictable capitated payments, and operational and regulatory flexibilities will enable rural health care providers to improve access to high quality care while reducing health care costs.
During the session, the CHART Model team will present on key aspects of the Model, including its objectives, eligible participants and their roles, payment options, and timeline. The forum will also provide an opportunity for potential applicants to ask the CHART team questions regarding these topics.
When: Tuesday, August 18, 2020, 1:00 pm to 2:30 pm ET.
