HEALTHCARE REFORM: Opportunity for Disruption or Status Quo?
Wednesday, November 28, 2012
After the 2012 election, we now know that healthcare reform is
continuing to move forward, creating
upheaval in many areas and new opportunities for investors and
entrepreneurs. Join us for some networking
with industry peers and a interactive discussion as we explore the dynamic
healthcare landscape.
Questions and topics include:
- What market changes are already underway and which will accelerate?
- What type of opportunities are created for investors and entrepreneurs through the emergence of new technologies and care delivery innovations?
- Understanding the dynamics and implications of emerging provider and payer strategies, such as narrow networks, ACOs and Value Based Purchasing
- Lessons learned from the last burst of managed care activity and mistakes we may be repeating
