Journal Club: Frequency Of Indirect Billing To Medicare For Nurse
Practitioner And Physician Assistant Office Visits

The centerpiece of the Health Affairs Journal Club meeting in June is,
"Frequency Of Indirect Billing To Medicare For Nurse Practitioner And
Physician Assistant Office Visits
,"
which examines how the widespread use of indirect billing for the
services of physician assistants (PA) and nurse practitioners (NP) has
resulted in an undercount of these providers in the health care system.

The authors of the study-including Sadiq Patel, a research fellow at
Harvard's Blavatnik Institute for Health Care Policy, who will present
the paper-devised a new way to measure indirect billing using
prescriptions that yields important insights into the role these
providers play in caring for Medicare enrollees.

Please join Dr. Patel on June 16 for a detailed discussion of the
paper's data, methods, and policy conclusions. Health Affairs
Executive Editor Don Metz will host.

Date: Thursday, June 16, 2022
Time: 4:00 p.m. - 5:00 p.m. (Eastern)
Access: Health Affairs Insider and Unlimited Members

Professional Development: Career Paths in Global Health and Humanitarian
Work with Rabih Torbay, President and CEO, Project HOPE

Rabih Torbay is an internationally recognized expert in the management
of complex disasters and emergencies.

He grew up in war-torn Lebanon and trained as a civil engineer; it was
his service in that profession in Sierra Leone during a period of civil
war that awakened and cemented his commitment to humanitarian causes.

Rabih is currently President and Chief Executive Officer of Project HOPE
, a global health organization dedicated
to providing lasting solutions to health problems with the mission of
helping people to help themselves, including medical training, health
education, and humanitarian assistance in more than 24 countries.
Project HOPE is Health Affairs' parent organization.

Register today and join us on June 28, when Health Affairs Senior Editor
Jessica Bylander hosts Rabih for a conversation about his work, his
influences, and the choices he's made along his career.

He'll talk about how he balances running a fast-growing, multimillion
dollar organization with 500+ staff during times of unprecedented global
upheaval while continuing to personally deliver "boots on the ground"
support to health care workers and communities around the world,
including in Ukraine.

Date: Tuesday, June 28, 2022
Time: 1:00 p.m. - 2:00 p.m. (Eastern)
Access: Available to all
