UPCOMING WEBINARS — February 20 and March 27

FEBRUARY 20: How Doctors Lead in Creating Value-Based Health Care

Tim van Biesen and Josh Weisbrod, partners at Bain & Company, will share insights from Bain & Company’s research, which shows that many physicians are hesitant to embrace and adopt value-based models of care. In their presentation, “How Doctors Lead in Creating Value-Based Health Care,” you will learn:

Why physicians feel excluded from value-based efforts
Mistakes healthcare organizations make by not engaging physicians
The business impact of excluding physicians
Examples of successful collaborations, where physicians are engaged in the process

Register for this practical, interactive webinar, and learn how to work closely with physicians to generate greater support for value-based care.

MARCH 27: The Value-Based Health Care Business Model

Featuring Thomas Lee, chief medical officer of Press Ganey Associates.

The shift from volume-based to value-based healthcare is inevitable, but the shift cuts into short-term profits. In Dr. Lee’s presentation, “The Value-Based Health Care Business Model,” you will learn how innovative providers are achieving long-term success despite the short-term financial pain.

Dr. Lee will look at how these providers are:

Boosting quality of care
Improving long-term value instead of short-term profit
Redesigning care for all patients
Acting now to achieve value-based care

To hear the business case for providing value-based care and glean practical, real-world examples of organizations embarking on strategies that produce value, register for Dr. Lee’s presentation.
