This session will explore the essential policy/regulatory, technological, and clinical changes necessary to transition the PALTC delivery model from a volume-focused fee for service “churn and burn” approach to one that enables prevention and population health management. Topics to be covered include: (1) innovative payment and delivery models that align incentives and provide the essential resources for clinicians to focus on driving down unnecessary emergency department visits and hospitalizations, (2) technologies that enable providers to perform a wide range of diagnostics at the bedside and promote virtual access to specialty care; and (3) advances in EHRs that provide real-time data to inform care delivery at the bedside. The speakers will explore models and technologies that hold promise for transforming PALTC care delivery along with potential barriers to delivery system transformation and reasons for optimism.

Learning Objectives:

At the completion of this session, learners will be able to:
  • Identify the financial, technological, and cultural factors that have inhibited the adoption and diffusion of value-based care delivery models and population health management approaches in PALTC settings despite significant growth in managed care and alternative payment models, including Medicare Advantage plans and accountable care organizations.
  • Identify the changes to reimbursement arrangements for healthcare providers as well as emerging care delivery models and clinical technologies and care delivery models that will be essential to bringing value-based care--including a focus on prevention, early detection, care coordination and management--to the bedside in PALTC facilities along with the key drivers and inhibitors to these critical changes and technological advances.
  • Translate the insights from the data and real-world case studies provided in the session to practical steps that participants can take within their organization to develop more effective incentive models, acquire valuable new technologies, and adopt clinical practices that promote prevention and care coordination.
  • Describe the specific reimbursement models, technologies, and clinical practices that innovators in the PALTC industry have adopted to ensure that population health management is being delivered at the bedside in their facilities.
