      Broussard
                        providers, integrating lifestyle and health care, and improving
 customer engagement and healthcare system navigation. Humana, which currently has
 more than 3 million seniors enrolled in their Medicare Advantage plans, collaborates with
 medical groups and health systems across the country to achieve these goals.

 In addition, Broussard will share perspectives from a wide range of executive leadership
 experience in publicly traded and private organizations within a variety of healthcare
 sectors, including oncology, pharmaceuticals, assisted living/senior housing, home care,
 physician practice management, surgical centers, and dental networks.

                         As out-of-pocket healthcare costs climb, employers are seeking
                         ways to negotiate lower rates and improve access, quality, and
                         expenses. Large employers—such as Intel, Wal-Mart, Lowe’s, and
                         GE—are bypassing insurers and turning directly to healthcare
                         providers to negotiate contracts. This model offers employers
                         the ability to control expenses, while health systems benefit from
                         the opportunity to capture additional revenue, increase patient
                         volume, and achieve better patient outcomes.

                          Executives from MemorialCare Health System and Boeing will
        Brady
                          discuss their “preferred partnership” health plan arrangement
 for the aerospace giant’s nearly 37,000 employees and dependents in the southern
 California area. Boeing, one of the earliest adopters of direct-to-employer contracting, has
 previously negotiated similar arrangements with other providers in Seattle, St. Louis, and
 Charleston, SC.

 The speakers will also address the infrastructure (including data), clinical innovation, and
 leadership needed to excel in direct contracting; pitfalls to avoid; and the outlook for a
 model that helps providers remain competitive in an ever-evolving marketplace.

           Balancing competing priorities in a challenging payer
           environment where value and volume are rewarded is a
           constant challenge for medical groups and health systems.
           During this interactive panel discussion, leaders will discuss
           how their organizations are navigating the move to value.
           You’ll hear from a rural integrated delivery system, a medical
           group not affiliated with a hospital, and an urban-based,
Benton     consumer-governed, non-profit integrated delivery system.

           Panelists will candidly discuss the successes and challenges
           they’ve encountered during the transition to value, including
           garnering buy-in from providers and payers alike, building
           the competencies needed for success, collaborating
           with community partners, and addressing patient access,
           satisfaction, and, ultimately, outcomes.

 Nuts, Bolts, and Lessons Learned in the Design and
 Implementation of a Model Medicare Advantage Contract
 Julie Day, M.D., Medical Director, Quality Improvement and Population Health
 Management, and Annie Sheets Mervis, M.S.W., Director, Quality Improvement and
 Population Health Management, University of Utah Health Community Physician Group
 Structuring an effective Medicare Advantage contract is the cornerstone to successful
 collaboration with payers and taking on risk. In a market with limited value-based
 contracts, the University of Utah Health Community Physician Group created a model
 Medicare Advantage contract to move the organization further along the continuum to
 value-based care. The effort culminated in a successful contract and positive working
 relationship with a major payer.
 Presenters will describe the evolution of the contract, including collaboration with its
 hospital contracting team, basic payment structure, pitfalls and errors in the first year, and
 revisions made to the contract. The session also will highlight strategies for succeeding
 with a Medicare Advantage contract, including Hierarchical Conditional Category (HCC)
 coding management, centralized outreach calls, and timely analytics.

Meaningful Collaboration Between Pharmacists and Physicians
to Improve Quality and Meet Patient Needs
Jamie Reedy, M.D., M.P.H., Chief of Population Health, and Laura Balsamini,
Pharm.D., BCPS, National Director of Pharmacy Services, Summit Health
Management and Summit Medical Group (NJ)
As payment models move toward risk-based payment, medical groups are
looking for new ways to create changes that engage and empower the entire
care team. Pharmacists are often an overlooked part of the care team, despite
their ability to impact quality measures, address rising pharmacy costs, and
improve medication-related patient safety.
Leaders from Summit Medical Group (NJ) will discuss all aspects of their
clinical pharmacy practice model, including the business case and value proposition,
primary care integration and workflow, pharmacist/physician collaboration, data
transparency, patient education, and outcomes measurement.
Participants will depart the session with actionable strategies and tactics that resulted
in the achievement of top tier medication adherence for their Medicare Advantage
population, along with a 14% reduction in high-risk medication utilization and 17%
improvement in generic utilization.

Implementing an Evaluation Framework to Support the Evolution
of Value- and Team-Based Care
Dominick L. Frosch, Ph.D., Chief Care Delivery Evaluation Officer and Senior Scientist,
and Edward M. Yu, M.D., Medical Director for Quality, Palo Alto Medical Foundation/
Sutter Health
Team-based approaches are paramount as organizations work to
implement new care models to support value-based care. However, these
new approaches often create challenges for organizations as they shift
away from fee-for-service and begin identifying and implementing sustainable team
structures. Evaluation and measurement of these models is critical, particularly before
spreading them across a large, geographically dispersed organization.
In its continued move to value, Palo Alto Medical Foundation is hiring a growing
number of allied health professionals (e.g., nurse practitioners, physician assistants,
clinical pharmacists, social workers) in primary care to support population health.
The presenters will detail their framework to systematically and consistently evaluate
the clinical and economic impact of this model, before describing a case study that
focuses on the deployment of allied health professionals across 21 primary care
departments at Palo Alto Medical Foundation.

 Patient-centric Care: Closing Care Gaps Through Technology,
 Transparency, and the Payer-Provider Nexus
 Ashok Rai, M.D., President and Chief Executive Officer, Prevea Health, and Jordan
 Pisarcik, Vice President, Account Management and Business Development,
 DocASAP
 Significant gaps in care along ethnic, geographic, and socioeconomic lines have
 driven patient satisfaction down while costs continue to rise. Creating digital
 connection points across healthcare providers, payers, and patients can help
 stakeholders to identify and reduce gaps while improving the patient experience
 and managing costs, particularly in value-based contracts.
 By employing online appointment scheduling and patient access solutions, Prevea
 Health has been able to intelligently match patients with available providers to better
 manage population health in rural Wisconsin markets. Experts will discuss how these
 technologies have increased patient volume, improved access to care, impacted
 appointment bookings via payer channels, and closed gaps in care.

 Rethinking Primary Care from the Ground Up
 Robert E. Matthews, Vice President, Quality and Care Redesign, PriMed Physicians,
 and President and Chief Executive Officer, MediSync
 For medical groups and health systems focused on increasing value revenues
 or improving quality scores, achieving concrete results becomes more and
 more urgent. Many of the outcomes driving costs and tied to public reporting in
 value-based contracts—chronic disease management, wellness and prevention,
 and acute care access—fall predominantly to primary care. These requirements
 represent a major hurdle for primary care at a time with significant PCP shortages
 and burnout.
 To help them succeed in their value-based arrangements, PriMed Physicians
 conducted an analysis and concluded that their current primary care model is
 incapable of meeting quality and cost goals. This presentation will detail their
 analysis and describe their efforts to fundamentally redesign primary care from the
 ground up. Participants will learn about design principles, methods, and progress to
 date, as well as some of the most common adaptations made to primary care teams
 that can actually worsen problems.

Lather, Rinse, Repeat: A Systematic Methodology to Improve Value-
Based Performance in HCC Coding and Cost-Effective Prescribing
Jonathan Nasser, M.D., Chief Clinical Transformation Officer, Crystal Run Healthcare;
Nicole Karchner, Pharm.D., Director of Pharmacy Management, Crystal Run Health
Plans; and Meghan Brunelle, CCS, CRCR, HCC Revenue Specialist and Educator,
Crystal Run Healthcare
The expansion of alternative payment models over the past decade has
created demand for a growing number of competencies that are critical to
an organization’s value-based successes, many of which rely on engaged
physicians. Leaders from Crystal Run Healthcare will demonstrate how
they’ve maximized physician participation and performance in two areas that heavily
impact performance in risk contracts and shared savings: Hierarchical Conditional
Category (HCC) coding and cost-effective prescribing. In this interactive seminar,
they will share how they have deployed a repeatable, systematic methodology that
increased submitted HCC scores by 45% and resulted in $2.1 million in drug cost
savings while total prescriptions rose 5%.
Participants will depart with change management strategies, actionable interventions
to improve key competencies, and essential lessons gleaned from nearly a decade of
engaging physicians in risk. As a supplement to the presentation, session attendees
will receive Crystal Run Healthcare’s gaps in care reports, details behind their novel
coding performance measure, value-based prescription formulary, and educational
handouts used to engage physicians.

Navigating the Data Triangle of Value-Based Care: Value,
Attribution, and Risk
Kim Clements, Manager, Population Health Management Systems, The Polyclinic
Physician Care Alliance and Physicians Care Network; and Mary Anderson, M.D.,
FACP, Chief Clinical Integration and Quality Officer, The Polyclinic Physician Care
Alliance and Physicians Care Network
Governmental and commercial payers are transitioning to increasing risk
arrangements with incentives for high-quality and efficient care. In order for
providers to succeed under this new paradigm, they will need to understand
how quality, cost, and risk for their patient populations are measured and how to use
and validate this data to transform care and perform well in value-based arrangements.
This transformation to value-based requires that all participants understand how
value-based care is defined and measured. Key components of the data triangle
are attribution, value, and risk. This session, led by experts from The Polyclinic and
Physicians Care Network, its managed care subsidiary, will highlight four steps needed
to understand these components, how to effectively use data to improve value-based
performance gaps, and examples and data from organizations ranging from a large
integrated delivery system to a small single specialty practice.

 Reaching for the Stars: Implications and Strategies for
 Success with CMS’ 5-Star Program
 Irene Chen, M.D., Associate Executive Director, The Permanente Medical
 Group, Inc.
 Under the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services’ (CMS’) Medicare
 5-Star Quality Rating System, it is essential for plans and their providers to
 demonstrate a high quality of care, not only to receive bonus payments to
 improve benefits but also to retain membership enrollment and ensure a
 robust presence in the market. Kaiser Permanente Medicare plans have
 consistently received high ratings since the program began in 2007, and have
 maintained high performance in all states in which the health plan operates.
 Learn firsthand about the structure and significance of the Medicare 5-Star Program,
 calculation of star ratings, and strategies to achieve superior performance and
 outcomes related to five broad categories—outcomes, intermediate outcomes,
 patient experience, access, and process—that are replicable for your medical group
 or health system.

 Using Proven Management Techniques to Transform Provider
 Engagement and Care Outcomes
 Richard Whittaker, M.D., Chief Medical Officer, WellMed Medical Group,
 part of OptumCare
 As medical groups and health systems transform from chaotic fee-for-service
 operations to value-based care practices that build engagement and focus
 on care outcomes, closing performance gaps between clinics or locations
 can yield significant dividends. In a time of rapid growth and expansion,
 WellMed Medical Group sought to design a scalable approach to allow and
 incentivize clinics to practice value-orientated medicine—and ultimately close a
 30% gap in performance metrics (including engagement, quality, and affordability).
 The network with over 14,000 doctors’ offices in Texas and Florida created Practice
 Transformation Groups (PTGs) that use evidence-based management techniques to
 implement best practices, build care team engagement, and produce breakthrough
 results with predictability and order.
 This practice transformation effort has dramatically reduced healthcare costs per
 member per month by 24% (a decrease of $179 PMPM), as well as significantly
 impacted rates of admissions, readmissions, and emergency room visits. Savings
 from decreased utilization in 2016 was $3.2 million, based on an average membership
 of 14,800 members. Session attendees will learn more about the design principles
 and approach, PTG selection process, five pre-implementation processes and four
 implementation stages, results, and lessons learned.

Using Mental Health Integration to Manage Chronic
Conditions at Lower Costs to the Community
Brenda Reiss-Brennan, Ph.D., APRIN, Medical Health Integration Director,
Intermountain Healthcare; and C. Chris Thornock, Vice President, Intermountain
Healthcare, and Chief Operating Officer, Intermountain Medical Group
This presentation will review the specific mental health integration (MHI)
delivery strategies that have improved the efficient management and
outcomes of chronic diseases and complex comorbid conditions at
Intermountain Healthcare. This includes promoting “whole health” and
well-being in the management of chronic disease in the primary care setting.
Results will describe the cost benefit of collaborative primary and mental health care
that leads to improved functional status in patients, and improved satisfaction and
confidence among physicians in managing mental health problems as part of routine
medical care at a neutral cost, with specific reduction in emergency room utilization.
Attendees will understand how Intermountain’s full clinical integration model can be
adapted to help local primary care redesign advance beyond specialty co-location
challenges in managing the social process and cost of multiple complex chronic
diseases (e.g., depression, diabetes, asthma, substance abuse, bipolar disorder,
heart disease, chronic heart failure, obesity, chronic pain). During the session,
presenters will share current results of descriptive and comparative analyses related
to factors that promote or deter improved outcomes across medical group clinics in
various stages of MHI implementation.

A Journey to Improve Panel Risk Adjustment Scores
Philip Chan, M.D., Associate Medical Director, Population Health, and Denise
Bender, Manager, Health Promotions, UW Medicine/Valley Medical Center
Under value-based reimbursement models, resource allocation is
determined by the risk adjustment factor (RAF) score. With value-based
contracts now accounting for nearly 50% of its business, UW Medicine/Valley
Medical Center steadily improved its RAF score from 0.638 in 2014 to 0.787 in 2017,
as their Medicare Advantage panel proportion also grew drastically. Experts will
share lessons learned and best practices, including how provider education and on-
boarding, incentives, improved data reporting efficiencies, and other activities and
strategies can improve your own organization’s RAF scores.
As part of this breakout session, participants will come away with tools that can
be used to better RAF scores at your medical group or health system, including an
