McKesson plans to grow its oncology platform by investing nearly $2.5 billion for a 70% stake in Community Oncology Revitalization Enterprise Ventures (Core Ventures), which was launched earlier this year by Florida Cancer Specialists & Research Institute (FCS). The institute is a group practice of more than 250 physicians, 280 advanced practice providers and almost 100 Florida locations that will remain independent following the deal’s close. The deal will bring advanced treatments and improved care to patients while reducing the overall cost of care, McKesson’s chief executive said.
The Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) issued a new report detailing total complaints related to the No Surprises Act and Affordable Care Act compliance. Providers and consumers earned $4.18 million in relief. More than 12,000 complaints were tied to the No Surprises Act compliance, 10,300 of which were against providers, facilities and air ambulance services. Most of such complaints were about surprise billing for non-emergency services at an in-network facility, followed by surprise billing for emergency services and good faith estimates.
And…Electronic health records giant Epic recently announced plans to transition its customers to TEFCA, the Trusted Exchange Framework and Common Agreement, a nationwide network to exchange patient data that was mandated by the 21st Century Cures Act back in 2016. On the same day, Carequality, an interoperability network that Epic belongs to, also announced that it plans to align with TEFCA. As one of the largest health IT vendors in the industry, Epic’s commitment to moving customers over to TECFA is noteworthy and will likely help to drive adoption, health IT experts say.
