PEPC was pleased to provide comments to CMS and ASTP in response to the Request for Information (RFI) on the Health Technology Ecosystem.
Health technology plays an essential role in supporting health care providers in value-based care arrangements. Small and independent practices are more resource constrained and struggle to develop the data infrastructure and associated supports necessary to fully leverage data and technology. PEPC appreciates the Administration’s commitment to reducing burden and promoting seamless and secure flow of health information between patients, providers, and payers, which will be particularly beneficial to small and independent physician practices and further support CMS’ goals of increasing health care competition and participation of independent physician practices in value-based care models.
