  • A new final rule issued by the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services and the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services for a mandatory alternative payment model called the Increasing Organ Transplant Access (IOTA) Model aims to improve the number of life-saving kidney transplants for patients whose kidneys have failed. Studies conducted by Regenstrief Institute and Indiana University School of Medicine researchers Rachel Patzer, PhD, MPH; Katie Ross-Driscoll, PhD, MPH; and Adam Wilk, PhD; were repeatedly cited throughout the CMS final rule. The new rule will test whether performance-based upside or downside risk payments increase access to kidney transplants for patients with end-stage kidney disease while maintaining or improving the quality of care and reducing Medicare costs. https://lnkd.in/gppYHCWV

  • A study from Regenstrief and Indiana University researcher Dr. Shelley Johns sheds light on the role of mindfulness in supporting advance care planning for adults with advanced cancers and their family caregivers. By addressing emotional barriers, mindfulness practices improve quality of life and enhance decision-making readiness in patients and caregivers alike. Researchers found that mindfulness training tailored for cancer patients help reduce avoidant coping strategies, facilitating essential conversations about care preferences and end-of-life planning. https://lnkd.in/gfJRDx9x
