Details

Today, manage care is the predominant form of healthcare in the U.S. Efforts in managed care programs over the past decade have led to improved care delivery across the country. Advancements have empowered providers to focus on care quality over cost, helping to improve member engagement and outcomes while impacting costs at the same time. Healthcare leaders must expand their focus from merely data and measurement. It must be complemented by a focus on workforce development and increasing teams’ quality competencies. Additionally, leaders must clarify and validate the knowledge and skills that each healthcare role must learn to successfully shift to outcome-focused, value-based care. By developing specific competencies in quality, population health, care coordination, data analytics, governance and care delivery, MCOs can empower their workforce's to meet the challenges and opportunities presented by this new model—and ultimately improve health care outcomes for all.

Today, consumers have more healthcare options and more control over them. Managed care has evolved into a more holistic part of the consumers’ world. It’s no longer just about copays, deductibles, and premiums, but has become part the overall quality of life for individuals and families. Members will be able to tailor their healthcare with more flexibility and ease. The care they receive should be whole-person centered, holistic, and integrated, accommodating the full range of their clinical, behavioral, social and spiritual health needs.

Another key to creating effective care delivery models is developing effective partnerships with key stakeholders. There is no one-size-fits-all solution in managed care. Nuances abound — across markets, regions, cultural competencies, geographies, and member populations — and each factor plays into how well any system can deliver care. There are significant opportunities to develop more effective managed care delivery models.

This conference will help you navigate this new world of managed care and bring you the education, networking, tools and resources to achieve improvements in both clinical and economic healthcare outcomes. Topics to be discussed will include health equity, member engagement strategies, payer-provider collaboration strategies, the impact of COVID-19 on managed care performance incentives, program integrity, leadership change management strategies, disruptive trends transforming healthcare, the adoption of emerging technologies, risk management, supplementing patient care coordination with telehealth, quality measurement and improvement, ways to boost Star ratings, patient safety, Medicare Advantage trends and more.
