6 Sessions Healthjump is Excited About and Why

1. Our Future is within REACH! Success in the Next Generation of Value-Based Care

Since REACH has different data requirements than Social Determinants of Health (SDOH), being able to understand the nuances is important when considering this program. Healthjump is interested in understanding how ACOs are documenting the information needed by this program so that we can better help our customers in this area of data acquisition.

2. Health Equity – VBC Realizing Equity, Access, and Community Health. Will it Really Impact the Benchmark?

Karen Isaacs, Family Physician at New Hanover Regional Medical Center, Novant Health, Todd Stivland, MD, CEO of Bluestone Physician Group, Ed White, Partner at Nelson Mullins, Mike Segal, Attorney at Nelson Mullins, and Balford Francis, Executive Director of New Hanover Health Advantage, Novant Health.
