Event Date: 6/9/2021

Event Overview

Wednesday, 6/9/2021
1:30 PM CT – 3:00 PM CT (90 minutes)
Hosted by: ATI Advisory

Suppose your health plan is working hard on your strategy to successfully meet your dual-eligible population's needs. In that case, understanding CMS's strategic direction with Duals is critical to that success. So, too, is reading the tea leaves on the relationship between the Federal and state governments and how this complicated relationship affects health plans serving dual-eligible populations. Not only that – important policy influencers like MACPAC and MedPac are pushing the dialogue and making sweeping recommendations that could profoundly impact your duals strategy. In this webinar, part of the Alliance's kickstart curriculum on Duals, we dig into the policy and regulatory spheres and connect the dots between these and the decisions you're making right now when it comes to your portfolio of product offerings plan structure and more.

We're delighted to welcome Allison Rizer with ATI Advisory to the Alliance stage for the first time! During this extended virtual meeting, Allison offers her insights on these issues below. Attendees will then have space and time to hear from one another and learn how your Alliance peers are approaching their Duals strategy – and what's influencing their decision-making the most.

Together, we'll dig in to:

Various duals programs: what they are, where they are, and how they do – and don't – intersect with Medicaid
What you don't know about MMP vs. FIDE; the role of the SMAC/MIPPA contract, PACE – and more
The nuanced requirements and opportunities of a DSNP vs. other plan types
Stress-testing your readiness to do hard things and do them well: data sharing, default enrollment management, coordinating with Medicaid, and integrating your appeals and grievances approach

Audience

Product innovation and development managers and those with oversight of government programs will find this webinar beneficial.
