SUMMARY/DISCUSSION:
On December 30, 2015, the federal Centers for Medicaid and Medicare Services (CMS) approved a five year renewal of California’s Section 1115 Medicaid Waiver, which provides California with more than $6.2 billion in new federal funding through programs that shift the focus away from hospital-based and inpatient care, towards outpatient, primary and preventative care - in other words, from volume to value.
The Public hospital Redesign and Incentives in Medi-Cal (PRIME) formerly known as DSRIP is a pay-for-performance delivery system transformation and alignment program. Natividad Medical Center engaged the services of Jane Finney, CLS, MBA, CPHQ, CPPS last fiscal year for consulting and project management services specific to the PRIME program.

Ms. Finney will assist Natividad Medical Center with their work associated with the PRIME program including; the development of project milestones, implementation of required programs and timely submission of required reports to the California Department of Health Care Services and other agencies.
