MACRA: Big Fix or Big Problem?

The Medicare Access and CHIP Reauthorization Act of 2015 (MACRA) aims to improve health care by rewarding clinicians providing higher-quality and lower-cost care who would receive increases in their Medicare reimbursement rates. Poorer performers would receive reductions in their rates. The author discusses how the design of MACRA will, however, result in unintended consequences and incentives that will increase health care disparities without reducing costs.
