Event Date: 5/12/2021

Event Overview

Wednesday, 5/12/2021
1:00 PM CT – 2:00 PM CT (60 minutes)

 

Join Alliance senior medical executives for an around the horn discussion on laboratory benefit management.  You’ll have the opportunity to share your top challenges and big wins, and learn from others. Our friends from Avalon Healthcare Solutions, the leader in Laboratory Benefit Management, will join us as well to offer advice and highlight cost savings opportunities available to you through their Alliance group purchasing contract.

Discussion topics may include:

  • New regulations
  • Charges for testing. Some labs are charging huge fees. How are other plans mitigating that? Going to arbitration?
  • How to reward members and their physicians for regular lab testing, and other strategies/tactics to educate and motivate lab completion
  • Trends in drug utilization, considering and integrating non-drug alternatives (diet, exercise, alternative therapies) to manage chronic disease
  • Genetic testing ordering and coding reimbursement complexities
  • Provider non-compliance with plan policies
  • Fraud, Waste and Abuse identification and detection
  • Addressing gaps in Medical Specialty reimbursement processes including PA matching logic


If you have specific topics you would like to discuss, please let us know on the registration form.
