West Coast Executive Retreat
Event Date: 8/15/2019
Event Overview
10:00AM - 3:00PM PT
The Alliance is hosting an executive retreat for top leaders of our member health plans located in the western region of the US. This invitation-only event is an exclusive networking and learning opportunity for CEOs, and is designed to facilitate meaningful sharing in a safe environment you won’t find at any other conference.
Designed to optimize your time away from the office, the event is conveniently located at the Hyatt Regency, a quick shuttle ride from the San Francisco international airport. This venue offers beautiful views of the San Francisco bay area and – more importantly – a chance to gain fresh perspectives from other executives wrestling with the same strategic and operational challenges you’re facing back at home.
This retreat is structured as a strategic conversation among top executives, and participants will share their organizations’ response to market shifts, so that everyone may benefit from new ideas, challenges overcome and lessons learned through strategic pivots. The retreat facilitator will guide the discussion to ensure an optimal mix of conversation, learning and networking. The strategic topics we’ll cover include:
- How is your organization responding to the aggressive growth in Social Determinants of Health? What investments are you making in this area? How are you interfacing with your provider owner and/or partners in this area? What challenges do you face?
- How is your organization responding to market pressures to make healthcare more “consumer focused"? Are you investing in a digital strategy? What elements are top of mind: care delivery, recruiting/onboarding, wellness and chronic disease management?
- Is your organization making significant investments in your core systems or other infrastructure elements?How are you addressing growing compliance, privacy and security concerns, as they relate to increased interoperability, delegation models, and more portals?
- What major areas of growth is your organization pursuing? How are you diversifying your portfolio to ensure more sustainable growth?
- Is your organization pursuing unique partnership models as part of your strategy? White labels, back office, joint ventures, etc? How do you see yourself competing in the shifting marketplace?
- What is your organization’s approach to risk management as it relates to ensuring appropriate payment for your populations? Are you utilizing outside vendors to ensure accurate risk scores or test for audit readiness? Are you pivoting to a new population health approach that supports better documentation and workflow between risk, quality and medical management?
