Closing the Payment Gap: Fundamental Transformation in Healthcare Delivery is Predicated on Innovation in Payment Models
COVID-19 – our most recent and still ongoing healthcare challenge – has come with misery, death, hardship, uncertainty and economic challenge. For diverse communities, it has put a stark spotlight on the massive disparities they face in health conditions, access to care and further emphasized the need to pay more attention to the social determinants of health. Compounding the coronavirus challenges, horrifying acts of racism and violence against people of color were publicly exposed, putting yet another spotlight on inequities that have existed in our country for centuries and establishing without a doubt, that racism is a public health crisis.
As the pandemic merged individual and societal needs, providers, healthcare leaders, insurance companies, government and citizens did what had to be done despite all of the existing barriers. The entire healthcare community came together to innovate and effectively transform care as never before. Healthcare organizations focused on mission, temporarily disregarding the skyrocketing treatment expenses and loss of revenue that are significantly impacting their financial viability. We also witnessed daily humanism and heroism in every community and organization. Doctors, nurses, provider teams, support staff and essential workers rose to the challenge, putting their own lives and health in jeopardy beyond normal limits.
The uncertainty of the crisis bred innovation and caused major transformations in the healthcare system. As healthcare leaders where do we go from here? Will we revert to old methods or will this moment provide the catalyst to make meaningful change and re-imagine a health system that truly provides exceptional health to all regardless of race, creed, gender, sexual orientation, religion or economic circumstances and that focuses on the things that really matter?
This conference will explore:
— Why we must redesign our healthcare system and what this will take.
— What leading organizations, states and countries are doing to provide superior care to all at a lower cost.
— How government, payors, providers, and regulatory bodies can facilitate a redesigned healthcare system.
— The changing expectations and demands of patients and the public.
— A roadmap for the healthcare system of the future.
Join us at this remarkable point in history and support meaningful change.
