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. \nAs 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. \nThe 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? \nThis conference will explore: \n— Why we must redesign our healthcare system and what this will take.\n— What leading organizations\, states and countries are doing to provide superior care to all at a lower cost.\n— How government\, payors\, providers\, and regulatory bodies can facilitate a redesigned healthcare system.\n— The changing expectations and demands of patients and the public.\n— A roadmap for the healthcare system of the future. \n\nJoin us at this remarkable point in history and support meaningful change.  \nIf you missed the first session\, you can still register to watch the other two live and receive Session 1 on demand!\nREGISTRATION NOW LIVE –\nCLICK HERE TO REGISTER! \nACHE\, MHA and NESHS MEMBERS: $49.00\nSTUDENTS: $25.00\nNON-MEMBERS: $99.00\nCo-sponsored by the Massachusetts Health and Hospital Association \n \n\nSession Details and Speakers: \nSession 1 – Tuesday\, November 10\, 2020\n5:00 pm – 7:00 pm\nClosing the Racial and Socioeconomic Divide:  Re-imagining a Healthcare Delivery System that Addresses the Needs of All Americans\nTo kick-off our series\, Session 1 will feature a diversity\, equity and inclusion virtual roundtable discussion featuring: \n \n \nThis session will also feature our 2nd Annual Diversity and Inclusion Award! \nClick here to view the full agenda for November 10 and speaker bios!\n\nSession 2 – Tuesday\, November 17\n5:00 pm – 7:00 pm\nClosing the Innovation Gap:  How COVID-19 Will Accelerate Digital Transformation and Drive a More Value-Driven Approach to Healthcare Delivery\n \nThis session will cover: \n-Different models of healthcare that other industrialized nations are providing and if there is a system that the United States should consider replicating. \n-Lessons learned from other countries who had different approaches in their COVID-19 response and had better health outcomes. \n-How epidemiological surveillance data is used to improve public health systems in this country. \n-What providers can be doing to prepare for the changes coming in our healthcare system. \n-The potential impact that big data can have on improving healthcare\, targeting of disease prevention and health promotion\, and reducing cost. \nClick here to view the full agenda for November 17 and speaker bios!\n\nSession 3 – Tuesday\, December 1\n5:00 pm – 7:00 pm\nClosing the Payment Gap:  Fundamental Transformation in Healthcare Delivery is Predicated on Innovation in Payment Models\nThis session will feature a closing keynote presented by:  \nDr. Farzad Mostashari\, CEO of Aledade\n \nClick here to view the full agenda for December 1 and speaker bio!
