As the entire healthcare system evolves, payers are evolving to be partners in health – for consumers, employers, and providers. Payer organizations are often thought of as traditional, long-standing institutions that have functioned relatively the same way for decades, however, that simply isn’t true anymore. Market disruption, shifts in the demographics of populations, innovations in healthcare delivery and cost containment, and regulation focused on addressing consumer demand for price transparency are changing the health plan and payer landscape. New strategies are required, as well as the ability to execute on those strategies, if payers are to continue to play a central role in the healthcare ecosystem.
Join us as we discuss the challenges facing payers with Kevin Jackson, Executive VP & Chief Growth Officer at Delta Dental of California, who steers the organization as a leader of change and Point B's own Susan Yeazel, healthcare executive and payer expert.
