Recorded live at the American Medical Association’s meeting on the new value-based approach to primary care, Alex Azar and Seema Verma take turns explaining the CMS Primary Cares initiative, which aims to put the focus back on keeping patients healthy as opposed to ordering procedures.

As the 24th Secretary of the Department of Health and Human Services, Alex Azar is pursuing four objectives, including lowering prescription drug prices and making individual insurance more affordable, while Seema Verma as the Administrator of the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services is working towards improving E/M codes to save providers’ time and money.
