LOS ANGELES CA, USA -- HEALTHCARE UPDATE NEWS SERVICE™ -- APRIL 9, 2016: The writing's on the wall: The Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) has set ambitious goals of moving 30% of healthcare spending into alternative payment models (APMs) by the end of this year--and 50% by the end of 2018.

You know your organization will need to take on risk sooner or later. But it's daunting--you're not quite sure how to go about it. Or you're already making the move and hitting some bumps in the road.

CAPG has just what you need. Join our April 22 Symposium and gain access to physician organization executives with decades of success in alternative payment models and high quality coordinated care.

The cost is just $200 ($100 for CAPG members) for a day of rich, operational content that will help provide a roadmap for your journey to risk. Here's what we'll cover:
