Session Description: Hospital at Home programs are growing across Medicare, in both FFS and Medicare Advantage, and there has been a lot of attention on the Medicare Acute Hospital Care at Home waiver since CMS announced this flexibility early in the pandemic.

OPTION 2: Value-Based Care Payment Models: Lessons Learned and Predictions for the Next Phase
Speaker(s): Brian Fuller, CEO, Integrated Care Solutions;
Rick Grindrod, President and CEO, Provider Partners Health Plan
Session Description: After over 12 years of experience, there have been many impacts, behavior changes, new partnerships and lessons learned across the SNF and LTC sector. The roles of SNF and LTC providers have varied from directly bearing the risk to responding to and partnering with health systems, physician practices and conveners who were bearing the risk. Given this experience, the recently released strategy refresh from CMMI and this new healthcare environment, an experienced panel of experts will also offer common themes for the next phase of payment models and predictions for how these may impact SNF and LTC providers going forward.

Speakers: Lynne Katzmann, Founder and CEO, Juniper Communities;

Jill Sumner, Vice President, Population Health Management, AHCA/NCAL
Session Description: Consumers have always expressed their strong preference to receive care in their homes. The COVID-19 pandemic has accelerated the actualization of care at home services with growth in virtual care, emerging technologies, and value based care. Presenters will share models and market strategies to succeed in this changing landscape.
OPTION 4: Using Aggregate Data to Facilitate Meaningful Clinical Change in Practice
Speaker(s): Dr. David Gifford, Chief Medical Officer, AHCA/NCAL
Session Description: As providers strive to engage in value-based quality models, how must their mindset shift to understand and see the benefits of looking at their group in the aggregate. This session will educate participants on the benefits of aggregate data, and the individual facilities capabilities and responsibilities for improving the aggregate outcomes. These practical approaches can help shape new value-based quality reimbursement models as CMS requires the shift to increase provider accountability.
