Getting Ahead of the Risk-Management Challenge
Yale New Haven Health System’s ACO Pilot Using the Employee Population
Topics: Benchmarking, Management Tools, Performance Improvement, Market Trends, Strategy, Accountable Care
About the Webconference
Hospitals that wait to build expertise in managing population health until risk-based arrangements dominate will have waited too long. The capabilities needed to prosper under accountable care are extremely complex and challenging to develop, so getting ahead of market evolution is critical for future financial stability. Acting on this insight, Yale New Haven Health System (YNHHS) launched an employee management pilot in 2011.
In this webconference, Amanda Skinner, MSN, MBA, YNHHS’ Northeast Medical Group Director of Clinical Integration and Performance Improvement, discusses the thinking behind this innovative initiative, details on design and roll-out, and the early results of their efforts.
Hear what they have learned during their journey from the original concept to today’s fully-operational program staffed with dedicated care coordinators targeting the population’s greatest risks.
Specifically, Ms. Skinner discusses:
- Laying the foundation for a pilot program by establishing goals, infrastructure and measures of success
- Strategies used to revitalize condition management at YNHHS, including recommended approaches to targeting, enrollment and intervention
- Tactics, tools and incentives to support behavior change in the managed population
- How Advisory Board technology is enabling effective health management by pinpointing risks, prioritizing areas of focus, and monitoring quality and cost performance
This webconference is specifically designed for hospital and health system executives who want to understand how to manage and improve the performance of their network across the continuum of care, both in today’s fee-for-service environment, as well as the emerging value-based payment environment. Executives who have functional responsibility over managed care, physician network strategy, ACO strategy, or finance and operations will find this discussion particularly relevant.
