Antiquated financing options fall short of serving you and your patients. In fact, 88 percent of dental professionals report they aren’t completely satisfied with their existing financing solution. But when nearly 40 percent of Americans can’t cover a $400 surprise expense, how can you overcome the cost barrier to dental care without offering financing? Join us as we sit down with dental executives for a panel discussion about the flaws with patient financing and how a modern approach better serves patients and their practices. Key Learning Objectives • Compare financing solutions and new advancements to determine which may be most beneficial for their practices. • See how real practices have realized a 25x increase in financing production and 150 percent more patient approvals. • Discover an accessible financing alternative with an over 85 percent approval rate.
How successful dental groups are helping patients afford their bills

The healthcare industry continues to explore opportunities to improve care and reduce unnecessary costs. Today’s total cost of care (TCC), includes a focus on risk, quality, social determinants of health, and resource utilization, to offer a more complete view of the costs related to patient care. However, two key obstacles face health plans in their TCC pursuit Data and Provider Engagement. So how do you navigate access, analysis, and coordination of data from often disparate systems, as well as provider support and engagement? During this session our experts from a prominent national health plan and Change Healthcare will explore how some organizations are achieving a more complete view of the cost of care and engaging providers to impact care quality, health equity, and effective resource utilization. Executives will highlight how they are collaborating with key stakeholders to change care delivery based on data driven insight, transparency, and ongoing program assessment to improve the health of specific populations and the broader community.

Your employer clients need help crafting competitive but cost-effective benefits programs to attract and retain top talent. With the right analytics strategies, payers can become a more consultative partner to clients, helping them identify low-hanging fruit to improve care adherence, quality, and costs. In this session, Merative will discuss opportunities in the areas of behavioral health and the management of specialty drugs where health plans can help drive the most change for employer groups in the short-term.

Providers at all levels are eager for tools and support to meet the expectations of value based care models and other administrative workflows. Traditional approaches and legacy technologies add burden and distract from treating patients. So, how can we work to enable providers through technology without adding more to their day, and how can we do it at scale? Join to listen to Jonas Goldstein, VP of Strategy and Commercial at Vim, as he draws insights from Vim's experience scaling point-of-care engagement technology with providers.
