Chilmark Research "Convergence 2017" conference first to highlight new healthcare models and opportunities
Two-day conference will bring together senior leaders from across healthcare to explore the provider-payer convergence trends, strategies and technologies transforming healthcare.
BOSTON, July 11 2017 /PRNewswire/ -- Chilmark Research, with support from founding sponsors CareEvolution and Cerner, are pleased to announce the official launch of the inaugural Convergence Conference to be held in Boston, MA on October 4-6, 2017.
"Today's environment of government initiatives, outcomes-based payment models, and provider consolidation have created a very deep and complicated challenge with explosive opportunities for innovation, collaboration and leadership," according to John Moore, Managing Director of Chilmark Research. He continues, "The next evolution of this industry is convergence, a trend we have observed gaining exponential traction across all industry verticals in the past year."
Convergence 2017 will highlight examples of innovations in healthcare technology, business models, and delivery systems as the lines between providers and payers continue to blur in response to the inevitable growth of value-based care. Below is a brief sampling of key topics that will be addressed:
- What does successful convergence look like for payer, provider, employer, and patient?
- What new opportunities can a convergence strategy present to each organization and the population they serve?
- How can you develop trust between organizations to open up communication?
- What are current points of friction hindering progress, and how can they be overcome?
- Where are current technology gaps impeding effective convergence strategies?
The event will feature a number of early leaders in this area sharing experiences and insights into industry best practices and opportunities to thrive in this changing landscape. John Bulger (Geisinger Health), Noah Lewis (GE Ventures), Paul Black (Allscripts), John Halamka (Beth Israel Deaconness Medical Center), and David McCallie (Cerner) are just a few of the key speakers Chilmark is excited to have join the company's analyst team on stage.
