Abstract:
As the medical community awaits the release of final rules to implement the new Medicare payment system under the Medicare Access and CHIP Reauthorization Act (MACRA), physicians can take steps now to prepare for the transition.
Insights
Physicians can prepare for the Medicare Access and CHIP Reauthorization Act (MACRA) transition. Understanding the new Medicare payment system is key for a smooth implementation.
Area of Science:
- Health Policy
- Medical Economics
Background:
- The Medicare Access and CHIP Reauthorization Act (MACRA) is set to reform physician payment.
- Final rules for MACRA implementation are anticipated by the medical community.
Purpose of the Study:
- To outline proactive steps for physicians to prepare for MACRA.
- To ensure a seamless transition to the new Medicare payment system.
Main Methods:
- Analysis of current regulatory landscape regarding MACRA.
- Identification of key areas for physician preparation.
Main Results:
- Physicians can begin preparing for MACRA implementation before final rules are released.
- Proactive steps can mitigate challenges associated with the new payment system.
Conclusions:
- Early preparation is crucial for physicians to adapt to MACRA.
- Understanding and addressing upcoming changes will facilitate successful adoption of the new Medicare payment system.

Preparation of Carboxylic Acids: Overview
3.9K
There are various methods for the preparation of carboxylic acids. For example, oxidation of primary alcohols or aldehydes using strong oxidizing agents results in a carboxylic acid. Aldehydes can also be oxidized in the presence of mild oxidizing agents.

Preparation of Epoxides
9.6K
Overview
Epoxides result from alkene oxidation, which can be achieved by a) air, b) peroxy acids, c) hypochlorous acids, and d) halohydrin cyclization.
Epoxidation with Peroxy Acids
Epoxidation of alkenes via oxidation with peroxy acids involves the conversion of a carbon–carbon double bond to an epoxide using the oxidizing agent meta-chloroperoxybenzoic acid, commonly known as MCPBA. Since the O–O bond of peroxy acids is very weak, the addition of electrophilic oxygen of peroxy acids to...
