The Healthcare Industry is always changing. Today, with the advent of Health Insurance Exchanges and Accountable Care Organizations, Americans have more options than they’ve had before in choosing how to receive care. While MDRP provides the most up to date information on how federal and state authorities are implementing public sector reimbursement programs, understanding the healthcare sector on a broader level is also a necessity. For that reason, MDRP will present the session, “Impact of Healthcare Reform and the Changing Healthcare Delivery System: Accountable Care and Patient Centered Medicine.” In this session, Steve Phillips, Senior Director for Health Policy at Johnson & Johnson will delve into how cost savings for insurance companies will not compromise patient care, and how patients will continue to have access to the care and providers most appropriate for their needs. The Medicaid Drug Rebate Program Summit will take place September 10-12, 2012 in Chicago, IL. For more information on the event, download the brochure.

Accountable Care Organizations and Patient Centered Medicine
Featured Speaker: Steve Phillips, Director, Health Policy, JOHNSON & JOHNSON
About the session: When matched with appropriate financial incentives and quality metrics, ACOs can encourage treatment options that are best tailored (based on available evidence) to meet individual patients’ needs; rather than choices that are driven by payers’ coverage and reimbursement policies. The challenge is to identify and implement the appropriate incentives and measures.
- • The goal of cost savings must be balanced with ensuring that quality patient care is not compromised
- • Ensuring patients have access to the care and providers most appropriate for their needs, inside and outside the ACO
- • Access to innovative treatments
