Learn Important Revisions: 2024 CMS Part C Risk Model

The Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) has released the finalized 2024 Part C risk adjustment model, which goes into effect Jan. 1, 2024. This revised model, V28, comes with substantial changes to the current V24 model, starting with using the ICD-10-CM classification system – which aligns with the rest of the healthcare system that has been using ICD-10 codes since 2015.

Comparing CMS V24 to V28, there is an increase in the number of Hierarchical Condition Categories (HCCs) and a decrease in the total number of ICD-10-CM codes that map to an HCC payment category.

During the next live edition of Talk Ten Tuesdays, Colleen Deighan Ejak, senior consultant with 3M, will share details of the revisions and how to outline a plan to get your organization ready to implement these changes.

All this and more will be covered during the next edition of the weekly Internet radio broadcast, which will also feature these outstanding segments and thought leaders:
