This discussion brings together health plan executives to examine where execution most often breaks down inside health plans, and what disciplined leaders are doing to convert strategy into measurable results.
Learnings include:
- How to translate strategy into outcomes through clear priorities, ownership and metrics
- Approaches to reducing avoidable utilization while improving quality and member experience
- Methods for matching the right members to the right clinical programs
- Ways to strengthen accountability and sustain execution to lower total cost of care
