2022 GME Finance Workshop

Graduate Medical Education (GME) finance is a complicated, and many times, confusing subject that touches every aspect of a residency, fellowship or other GME program.

The Office of Mississippi Physician Workforce (OMPW) sponsored its’ inaugural Graduate Medical Education (GME) Workshop on May 7, 2021 at the Horne Event Center in Ridgeland, MS. The free, one-day event was designed to increase participants’ understanding of key issues in GME funding through a combination of information sessions, practical advice, and GME updates. Continuing Professional (CPE) Credits were available to CPA participants.

Held in collaboration with Laura Gillenwater, CPA, Horne LLP; Christopher Francazio, PKF Health; and Shatara Bogan, Mississippi Division of Medicaid;  the conference provided a venue in which new and established GME leadership, faculty, staff, and leaders considering future entrance into GME development could gain valuable education and engage in important network opportunities.

The seminar covered a variety of subjects including:

• Overview of GME Reimbursement
• Mississippi GME – Cap Strategies, Rate Setting, and Other GME Considerations
• GME Interim Rate Transmittal
• Counting FTEs
• Mississippi Division of Medicaid GME and State Support
• Mississippi Medicaid Required Documentation Request
• Latest GME Legislation Update
