Session Information
1:00 - 1:30PM ET | Fireside chat: The role of technology in hospital-at-home
Join us to hear from a tech insider on the pros and cons of linking with companies like Google and Best Buy that are active in this space. Why are tech companies interested here? What’s in it for them? How do patients benefit?
1:30 - 2:00PM ET | Panel: The current state of hospital-at-home
In this session, learn from hospital executives that have built and maintained their own hospital at home programs who will go over the hurdles they encountered and how to fix them, such as addressing clinician buy-in. What macro trends are driving demand? What are the best practices in building out these programs?
2:00 - 2:30PM ET | Panel: The future of hospital-at-home
CMS expanded Medicare flexibilities to pay for hospital-at-home during the pandemic. The long-term sustainability of such policies are a huge question mark hanging over the programs’ durability after COVID-19 is truly behind us. How will hospital-at-home programs handle the regulatory uncertainty? Will CMS enshrine the higher payments, as some lawmakers and industry wants? How will the programs evolve moving forward to address patient’s shifting care needs and rising demand as the population ages?
