Dr. Emad Rizk is set to assume leadership of hospital revenue-management company Accretive Health on July 21. Modern Healthcare recently interviewed Rizk, president of McKesson Health Solutions since 2003, about the revolution afoot in healthcare payment, with providers on a fast and rocky path from fee-for-service to value-based models.
Rizk says that the growing complexity has him "extremely concerned" about providers, who must collect increasing sums directly from patients but lack the information they need at the point of care to decipher what's owed.
