  • Recognize how hospices can strategically pivot to expand their geography, diversify the scope of services to get “upstream,” and be more attractive to payors

WEBINAR DETAILS

Hospices and other providers are increasingly looking to get “upstream” as payment reform looms. Both Medicare and commercial payors have begun to recognize the valuable role of palliative programs and innovative approaches to care, which has led to increased revenue streams. Providers should strategize how to take advantage of these new revenue and service opportunities, whether through palliative programs, mergers and/or acquisitions, joint ventures and other networking models, or different value-based payment models such as VBID. Join the presenters as they delve into and provide unique insights on the current “upstream” landscape.

WHO SHOULD ATTEND?

This informative overview of diversified revenue streams is designed for CEOs, presidents, CFOs, COOs, administrators, in-house legal counsel, private duty companies, and anyone looking for more information on the best path forward in this area of disruption and steady market consolidation.
