Managing Transitions to Care for Medicare Patients to Avoid Costly Inpatient Admissions, Live Audio Conference
Healthcare Intelligence Network, Nov 2006, Minutes: 90
Managing Transitions to Care for Medicare Patients to Avoid Costly Inpatient Admissions, a November 30, 2006 audio conference, will examine how to predict which Medicare patients are most likely to experience problems that can lead to higher costs of care when care transitioning and what strategies are most effective in managing these transitions.
Hospital admissions and re-admissions are not only common among Medicare populations, but are most oftentimes preventable.
During this 90-minute audio conference, Danielle Butin, director, northeast health services for Secure Horizons, United Healthcare and Gregg Lehman, PhD, president and chief executive officer, INSPIRIS, will describe how their organizations are coordinating the care of Medicare patients as they transition through the healthcare system to minimize costly episodes of care.
You will get details on how to:
- Lower re-admission rates by managing the post-hospital transition period;
- Manage the doctor-to-doctor transition;
- Develop effective targeting strategies that can be used to identify those patients who are at greatest risk for experiencing complicated care transitions;
- Create a 'medical home' that can aid in managing transitions; and
- Understand and maximize the role of health coaches, patient navigators and case managers in care transitions.
You can 'attend' this program right in your office and enjoy significant savings – no travel time or hassle; no hotel expenses. It’s so convenient!
Who Will Benefit from this Audio Conference?
CEOs, medical directors, disease management directors, managers and coordinators, health plan executives, care management nurses, business development and strategic planning directors.
