Telehealth Post-Pandemic: Sustaining and Expanding the Momentum
The COVID-19 pandemic accelerated adoption of telehealth as a means of expanding and extending access to care. With multiple vaccines in production and a coordinated public health initiative underway to get people vaccinated, what does the future hold for telehealth as circumstances evolve? Speakers will discuss key learnings from the implementation of telehealth, opportunities for telehealth evolution, and the policy considerations that will shape the future of telehealth and its expansion.
Improve Engagement and Outcomes with Consumer SDOH: Best Practices and Use-Cases
This session will explore best practices for leveraging SDOH data to improve member engagement, close gaps in care, and improve health outcomes. Learn how to manage and assess your member population’s health by combining clinical and claims data with consumer behavior data at a scalable, individually identified level. Join us to hear real-world use cases and outcomes on effective SDOH application to understand and address racial, ethnic, and socioeconomic equity within your member populations.
SDOH Support: Putting Policies to Work for Whole-Person Care
This session will offer a review of flexibilities extended to MA plans and Medicaid MCOs that can help to address SDOH and provide whole-person care. Join us to learn how MA plans are using new flexibilities, including changes to uniformity requirements and supplemental benefits. Speakers will also discuss pathways in Medicaid to address SDOH, recently highlighted in guidance from CMS, including 1915 waivers, “in lieu of” services, and 1115 demos.
How to Expand Virtual Care’s Impact with Policy and Technology
The U.S. health care system is on an unsustainable trajectory. Utilizing AI technology and strategic legislation, it is possible to democratize health care and construct a framework that gives all Americans accessible, affordable, and quality care. Join this session to learn how payers and state/federal policy can create room for digital health to flourish and help transform health care into a proactive, people-centric system that empowers patients with tools for long-term health.
