Primary Care First (PCF) and Serious Illness Patient (SIP) Models: Part 3: IURs and Edits for Non-Sequential Claims
The Innovation Center has secured approval for a new Primary Care First (PCF) model with two separate but related components: (1) the PCF component and (2) the Seriously Ill Population (SIP) component. Both components will test alternative payments and the provision of technical support to primary care practices. Practices may participate in one or both components, although individual beneficiaries may only be covered under one component at a time.
