About the event
Hospital care is usually the largest expense of any health plan. Effective care coordination and communication with hospital care providers is vital in reducing costs without compromising patient care. Whether direct payment plans or reimbursements that incentivize value-based care, partnerships between employers and hospitals can be a big way to control health plan costs. Employers also need to be empowered to know how to evaluate the costs and benefits between hospitals and other providers. This webinar will discuss ways to improve collaboration between hospital care providers and employers to achieve better outcomes.
