After this session you’ll be able to:

1. Discuss the elements of value-based care/value-based purchasing.
2. Review techniques for how to engage physicians, your team, and your patients in the ASC.
3. Explain potential changes to be made in the Quality Assessment Performance Improvement (QAPI) program to address value-based care as it relates to clinical, purchasing, and business processes.
4. Understand how to sustain the changes made in order to implement a value-based care/value-based purchasing program.

Why this is important:

Volume-based care drives the bottom line in ASCs, but as they move toward value-based care, healthcare leaders must prepare to move strategically in that direction as well. Beverly Kirchner will impart concrete techniques for engaging staff and physicians as well as patients in the transition from volume- to value-based care.

Gain a complete understanding of QAPI - the merger of two complementary quality management approaches: the QA (Quality Assessment) reactive, regulatory compliance process with the PI (Performance Improvement) proactive, data-driven process - and identify the role of QAPI in value-based care.

Learn about the challenges inherent in creating and sustaining change, and how to prepare for bundled payments.

Do you know how to assess your current processes to identify ways to drive down costs and increase satisfaction for your team and patients? You will leave this workshop excited and equipped to do just that.

By attending this workshop, you will earn a certificate of completion as well as 6.0 CE credits.
