    • Abstract:
      The article presents an interview with Shannon Fiser, the vice president of financial operations of Ardent Health Services. When asked why Ardent decided to become part of the Medicare Acute Care Episode Demonstration, Fiser says that Ardent saw the potential of how bundled payment could impact big-ticket surgeries. She comments on gain-sharing distributions which have been given to physicians at Ardent. Fiser believes that the bundled payment model could be valuable in a variety of areas.
