The purpose of this event is to provide providers and payers with information on promising new approaches to paying for and delivering appropriate, high quality and efficient care in both the public and private sectors. Key to the success of these new models will be the organization’s commitment to quality and patient care. Organizations that take a step back from the solutions and look at what it means to transform relationships grounded in community will be more likely to succeed. A community based approach to developing new provider performance standards, transparency initiatives and quality reporting requirements should guide redesign and implementation of any bundled or global payment. Real-life examples of existing models will be explored and discussed during the Summit and the audience will be provided with insight on the promises and pitfalls of innovative programs that pay for coordinated care from the hospital, physician, payer and employer perspectives.
