Retail Health Care: We shop for everything else, why can’t we shop for health care? Using Incentives to Drive Shopping Behaviors

Helping people make smarter health care choices is a relatively new phenomenon.  While almost all health plans offer their members some type of transparency tools or assistance, an average of only 1-3% of those members actually use the tools.

Rewards programs are increasingly used in health care to help close that member engagement gap.  During this webinar you will:

  1. Learn when – and when not – to use rewards to encourage transparency tool use
  2. What level of rewards you should offer
  3. Who you should offer rewards too for the greatest success

From Concept to Reality: Practical Considerations of Implementing Alternative Reimbursement Models

From Concept to Reality: Practical Considerations of Implementing Alternative Reimbursement Models will do just that present and discuss concrete, real world experiences of payers and providers seeking to reengineer the way we pay for care with the goal of driving value in place of volume. We will eschew theory and talk only about on-the-ground efforts: what works, what does not, overcoming barriers, and developing payer-provider relationships that align incentives. After listening to our panelists you should have information on which to base a realistic approach with which to design and implement reimbursement which supports the volume-to-value revolution.
