Congrats to Dr. Kosinski on his new role in advising the secretary of Health and Human Services on physician payment models.
In the U.S. Government Accountability Office (GAO) announcement, Comptroller General of the United States and Head of the GAO Gene L. Dodaro said, “Congress directed the Department of Health and Human Services to shift Medicare from a program that pays based on volume to one that pays based on value. As part of this effort, PTAC can play an important role … After reviewing this latest round of extremely well-qualified candidates, I am pleased to share our 2021 selections for the committee.” Dr. Kosinski’s term will expire in 2024.
