OVERVIEWPayers are pushing and providers are adopting new payment mechanisms known as “value-based” models. Perhaps the most popular value-based model being adopted is bundled payments where care is delivered for a fixed price.

Unlike the current care delivery and financial world, bundled payment models force providers to deliver, monitor and account for patient care in new ways. As always, this is putting stress on IT to support and deliver success.

Widespread adoption of these models seems inevitable at this point. IT will be the key to success for any health care organization. This webinar will take the attendee through a complete bundled payment project demonstrating the critical role of IT along the way. While the focus will be on the provider perspective, the payer view will also be covered. IT’s role in each of these areas will be covered:• Overview of bundled payments• Initiating a bundled payment project• Bundle design• Contracting trends• Workflow• Cost management – the key to profitability• Monitoring performance

TARGET AUDIENCECEOs, COOs, CIOs, CFOs, CMOs, CMIOs and IT directors/managers.

OBJECTIVES• Understand how bundled payments will affect the

organization and its customer base (patients).• Analyze and access technologies that will support launch

and operation of a bundled payment initiative.• Organize and plan for IT’s role in a successful bundled

payment project.
