"The American Medical Association (AMA) strongly applauds Secretary Burwell and Acting Administrator Slavitt – and their teams – for listening to physicians' concerns about the timeline that was originally proposed for MACRA.
"By adopting this thoughtful and flexible approach, the Administration is encouraging a successful transition to the new law by offering physicians options for participating in MACRA. This approach better reflects the diversity of medical practices throughout the country.
"The AMA believes the actions that the Administration announced today will help give physicians a fair shot in the first year of MACRA implementation. This is the flexibility that physicians were seeking all along, and we are looking forward to working with Acting Administrator Slavitt and the administration on other efforts to get MACRA off to a successful start."
