JNJ helps hospitals through mandatory CMS plan for episode payment models

The Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (or CMS) proposed a mandatory episode payment program in early August 2016. The program makes the compensation payment to care providers available through an episode of care instead of individual care components.

JNJ’s Geriatric Fracture Program is a solution that provides value-based care to patients and has proved successful in more than 150 hospitals. It will help care providers implement the program, provide support, and help collect information and data that will help them evaluate performance. The program is aimed at reducing the length of stays, better patient outcomes, and efficient treatment.

Johnson & Johnson’s program is an example of the initiative undertaken and business model changes adopted by various medical device companies. These include Zimmer Biomet Holdings (ZBH), Abbott Laboratories (ABT), and Medtronic (MDT). It aims to be positioned better in the changing medical device industry, focusing on value-based care. JNJ accounts for approximately 6.7% of the iShares Core High Dividend (HDV).
