Abstract:
Breast imaging radiologists are considered by many to be leaders among diagnostic radiologists in the transition to value-based care. Many strategies for success in the changing healthcare landscape are exemplified by the day-to-day practice of breast imaging, including well-developed quality measures, standardized accepted best practices and terminology, and a prominent role in communicating with patients and coordinating care. Further development of these strategies will be important for continued success in both the Merit-Based Incentive Payment System and in alternative payment models.
