May 11, 2010Portico Systems to Present Value Based Reimbursement At Network Contract Optimization 2010
Session Highlights Provider Payment Innovations – Aligning Provider Payments with Improving the Continuum of Care
Murali Karamchedu, Vice President, Healthcare Architecture, Portico Systems, the leader in Integrated Provider Management solutions, will be presenting “Developing a Value-Based Reimbursement Approach to Improving Outcomes and Lowering Costs” at the Network Contract Optimization 2010 event in Chicago at 1:45 PM CT on Wednesday, May 12.
SESSION ABSTRACT:
There is mounting pressure from the government and employers to fundamentally change our healthcare system and focus on improving outcomes, increasing access to medical care, and moving away from a pay-for-service model. Central to these changes is a healthcare system that aligns incentives with behaviors from health plans, providers, and patients that focuses on improving the continuum of care.
Value-Based Reimbursement is the embodiment of these changes. With the growing complexity of provider contracts, the system and processes have to integrate the performance and quality that will drive reimbursement methodologies. Only through this comprehension and alignment can the goal of Value-Based Reimbursement be achieved.
