2008 Symposium

Providers of Care Breakout Session Ideas

7.8

Make the case for payment reform/properly aligned incentives:

  • prevention/wellness-based
  • outcomes-based
  • new form of capitation
  • receptiveness for new payment modalities (e.g. care coordination)
  • reimburse for "virtual appts."
7.5 Universal use of interoperable clinical information technology (common language, systems that talk)
6.9 Develop programs for high-impact and/or high-cost services (e.g. end-of-life care, preventive, chronic diseases, vulnerable populations)
6.9 Adopt national quality/ performance standards and report them publicly
6.7 Restructure care provision and payment to support coordination of care (e.g. promotion of "medical home")
6.7 Agree to a small set of national healthcare goals: reduce injuries, reduce costs, reduce inpatient hospitalizations over three year
6.6 Incent/reward preventive care
6.5 Develop evidence-based operations to partner with evidenced-based medicine (systems reengineering)

5.8 Educate public so that they understand their role in their own health care (prevention, health maintenance and shared decision-making)
5.4 Implement team-based training
5.1 Foster creation of improved information about effective care processes (e.g. specialty societies develop criteria)
5.0 Develop core-curriculum in health professions schools to focus on multi-disciplinary care and management of chronic conditions (e.g. musculoskeletal)
4.6 Professional liability reform
4.5 Include family members/care givers in care provision process to improve outcomes (healthy home)
3.6 Concentrate on genetic research to lead to more individualized care
3.2 Implement a community-based demonstration project to serve as a guide for health care reform
