Thursday, September 18th, 2025 | 1:00 PM - 2:00 PM CT

Margin erosion, payer rate compression and regulatory mandates are squeezing healthcare revenue. For many systems, reimbursement strategies remain reactive, leaving millions on the table.

Without a data-driven approach, organizations risk falling behind in payer negotiations and missing opportunities that standalone data solutions may not uncover.

In this session, leaders share how health systems, physician groups, and management companies can elevate their reimbursement strategy by going beyond traditional models through marrying internal cost and contract data with external market rate benchmarks. 

Key learnings:
 
  • How transparency mandates are reshaping payer-provider negotiations
  • The datasets and governance models that support ongoing revenue optimization
  • Methods to integrate internal and external data
