The Center for Health Economics & Policy will host the seventh event of their Transforming Healthcare in Missouri series — Implementing Accountable Care within Medicaid —on Tuesday, September 20th from 1-4:30 p.m. in the Umrath Lounge located on the Washington University Danforth Campus.

This meeting will focus on the topic of adding value-based and accountable care models to Medicaid. 

Attendees will hear Meredith Rosenthal, of Harvard University, speak on Value-based payment: sizing up the progress of public and private payer reforms. Next, a panel of experts with diverse perspectives on the topic of adding value-based and accountable care models to Missouri Medicaid will be moderated by center Co-director Karen Joynt Maddox. Finally, attendees will break into small groups to discuss Missouri-specific questions and concerns on implementation of such models and will generate feasible policy solutions that could improve Medicaid participants’ health outcomes in a financially responsible manner.
