Angie Caldwell, Principal, will discuss the Transforming Episode Accountability Model (TEAM) at the American Association of Provider Compensation Professionals (AAPCP) National Provider Compensation and Workforce Strategy Conference, April 23-25 in Nashville.
The conference brings together professionals from community hospitals, academic medical centers, healthcare systems, physician practices, and firms specializing in consulting, law, and valuation to discuss provider compensation, optimization, financial alignment, strategy, and workforce management in the healthcare industry.
On April 24, Caldwell will present, “Can TEAM Save Value-Based Compensation?” She will discuss TEAM, a Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services mandatory five-year episodic payment model, which begins January 1, 2026. TEAM affects more than 700 hospitals representing over 200,000 episodes per year. Caldwell will cover why organizations have struggled to increase the value-based component of employed physician compensation. She also will discuss whether value-based compensation could be the differentiator for hospitals to compete with independent physician practices for new physicians, leading to highly effective value-based physician compensation, and share the requirements for implementing financial arrangements under TEAM.
The AAPCP is the largest nonprofit organization in the country devoted to provider compensation, contracting, and alignment. The organization’s members advise and lead organizations on provider compensation, contracting, planning, recruitment, retention, strategy, and valuation.
