payer issues
virtual summit
The COVID-19 pandemic has transformed the role of the payer in healthcare. Health plans are now challenged to ensure members can safely access tests and treatment for a novel virus. Additionally, payers have to manage care plans for the chronically ill who may have delayed healthcare services for months and prepare for potential significant changes to the way telemedicine is reimbursed.
There is no playbook on how to best meet the challenges of the current moment. But what's clear is collaboration will be crucial for crafting sustainable strategies.
That's why Becker's is hosting its first-ever Payer Virtual Summit. Join clinical care leaders and executives from large regional commercial insurers and community health plans as they discuss noteworthy reimbursement trends, their biggest challenges and what population health initiatives are moving the needle.
We'll see you there.

Health plan executives look forward: Emerging from a highly disruptive year
An Optum study of how leaders are charting a course for 2021 and beyond
Improving peoples’ health and lives is not an easy mission, and the events of 2020 have introduced new complexities that leaders must address head-on. We believe that health plans are ideally positioned to meaningfully reshape member, provider, and employer experiences through enabling collaboration across the health care ecosystem.
This study summarizes insights and strategies garnered from over 30 conversations with our community, regional, national, provider-sponsored, and Blue plans partners. Themes that came out of the study on the areas of focus include:
• Increasing affordability
• Driving closer provider relations
• Driving growth with scalability
• Offering a best-in-class member experience
• Integrating digital technology
