Health care delivery and payment models are changing. Learn your options. Make the right decision. Sell, form a joint venture or remain independent.
Reimbursements keep falling and competition is getting tougher. EHRs and meaningful use have huge dollar costs and administrative burdens. Complex new models like ACOs, bundled payments and patient-centered medical homes are game changers that are here to stay. Meanwhile, Medicare is picking winners and losers with relentless pay cuts to imaging and many other specialty-specific services.
But you don’t have give in or give up – you have options. Alignment can mean just clinical integration with limited hospital involvement, or it really can be the nuclear option of an outright sale. Between these two extremes, you have a wealth of other choices. You must know them to make a smart decision that works for your practice.
At this unique conference, nationally recognized experts will show you:
- All the alignment models out there – sales, partnerships, joint ventures, clinical integration or models with even more limited hospital involvement
- Options to protect your autonomy and compensation with key tactics to structure deals
- How to find the right hospital partner – or how to shape an existing hospital relationship into that partner
- What hospitals look for when aligning with a practice – from consultants who advise hospitals
- Ways to determine how much your practice is worth and how to negotiate for every dollar
- What Accountable Care Organizations and Patient Centered Medical Homes mean to you and how they affect potential alignment deals
- How to work with the hospital after the deal is concluded
Know your options and get the information you need to make the best decision.
For the first time in history, hospitals own more medical practices than physicians.
