With the anticipated changes in the health care industry, innovative
care delivery and payment models must be developed to make quality care
both affordable and accessible to health care consumers.
Oakland University will present “The Physician’s Practice: Emerging Issues for Healthcare Providers” — a forum bringing industry practitioners and researchers together to discuss patient needs, practice management, care delivery and information technology support on Thursday and Friday, May 9 and 10.
“The Affordable Care Act is expanding health care to many who were uninsured before, and the government’s price structure for care-related reimbursements is expected to put competitive pressure on insurance companies and health-care providers,” said Mohan Tanniru, dean of Oakland University School of Business Administration.
The forum is 8 a.m. to 5:15 p.m. May 9 at Thomas M. Cooley Law School, 2630 Featherstone Road, Auburn Hills. It will offer a variety of sessions including “Trends in Reimbursements, Improved Physician Decision Making,” “Enhanced Operational Efficiency” and “Information Technology Innovations.”
In addition, a half-day post-forum workshop scheduled for 8 a.m. to noon on May 10 will highlight some of the challenges discussed at the forum and will identify actions steps with a focus on follow-up and collaborative academic research and/or student projects.
The cost to attend the forum is $150, and online registration is available. Participation in the Friday workshop is free.
The event is presented by the Center for Integrated Business Research and Education at Oakland University’s School of Business Administration, in partnership with the Executive MBA in Health Care Management at Oakland University, Automation Alley, Oakland County’s Medical Main Street and St. Joseph Mercy-Oakland. Other sponsors include Thomas M. Cooley Law School, United Physicians, Michigan Health Information Network Shared Services and the Michigan Wellness Council.
