NASL/AHCA Health Information Technology Intensive Track
Ignore Technology at Your Own Peril:
Defining Success in Value-Based Health Care
HHS is swiftly moving toward a goal of more than 50% of all fee-for-service Medicare dollars paid through alternative payment models, such as bundled payments and accountable care, by 2018. To succeed in this new value-driven environment, providers must be able to analyze data and exchange health information as patients transition from one setting to the next. This special Sunday intensive will explore the role that technology can play in ensuring safe and seamless transitions of care.
Panelists:
Larry Wolf
Principal, Strategic Health Network, Chicago, Illinois
Terrence O'Malley, MD
