A new study published in the American Journal of Managed Care shows that Medicare Annual Wellness Visits (AWVs) can increase healthcare quality and reduce healthcare costs. Josh (@DrJIsrael) sits down with two of the authors of this paper, Farzad Mostashari (@Farzad_MD) and Jen King, to talk about the challenges and importance of doing studies like these, and how AWVs can be used to build primary care relationships and serve as a key component of ACO strategy.
