Description
 
On the journey to value-based care, there are many paths to take. They all lead to the same destination: risk-based arrangements. By 2026, CMS will require all providers to take on the cost of caring for their patients – or face annual decreases in Medicare reimbursement. 
 
Navigating the move from volume to value requires adopting new strategies for staffing, population health management, and innovative technology. Caravan Health CEO Lynn Barr will present strategies providers can take to improve patient care and profitably participate in value-based payment models under the new Medicare Shared Savings Program landscape. 
 
Objectives:
 
  • Examine the current and future landscape of Accountable Care Organizations (ACOs).
  • Review Medicare reimbursement trends and risk definitions, as well as strategies to excel in value-based payment models.
  • Assess the collaborative ACO model and understand how this innovative model can help providers reduce their risk by joining together for value-based contracts with enough lives to negate random statistical variability.
