A Geriatrician's Success Story -- Why Geriatric Medicine Matters -- Matching Clinical Strengths to Revenue -- Taking Full Risk: A Real World Experience -- The Psychology of Geriatricians -- Going to Battle -- By the Numbers -- Swimming with the Sharks -- Me and the OIG -- Nursing Homes: Survival of the Fittest -- Assisted Living: Health Care or Real Estate? -- House Calls: A "New" Old Fashioned Approach -- Care Coordination: The Heart of Geriatrics -- Medicare Advantage: Past, Present and Future -- Business Planning for Geriatrics Success -- They Don't Call it Risk for Nothing -- ACO's: Days of Future Past -- Bundling and Alternate Payment Models -- MIPS and Geriatrics -- Fee for Service: Will it Ever Die? -- Competition: Not an Effective Strategy -- Getting the Most out of Providers -- Electronic Health Records -- Opportunities in Today's Healthcare Marketplace.

This book takes a fresh look at how caring for Medicare beneficiaries can lead to success in today's healthcare marketplace. Using examples from highly successful practice models, the book will take the reader through the key components necessary to run a profitable geriatric practice. The author, who co-founded what became one of the largest geriatric private practices in the country, discusses each part of the continuum of care from the perspective of the provider-client relationship, highlighting the importance of business cultures in this environment. The text also features an overview of payment models, starting with traditional fee-for-service, insurance (Medicare HMO's), and finishing with the concept of bundled payment models that have been heralded as the future of physician reimbursement. Finally, this book focuses on the practical aspects of business planning, budgeting and hiring and concludes with chapters about the key challenges faced by a geriatric practice, focusing on provider productivity, coding and billing, and dealing with potential competition in the marketplace. The Business of Geriatrics is the ultimate business guide for primary care physicians, geriatricians, residents, medical students, healthcare administrators, policymakers, business and medical administrative students, and practice managers.
