Exploring the Potential of Value-Based Purchasing in Maine
2020 Annual Membership Meeting
Conference: Exploring the Potential of Value-Based Purchasing in Maine
The United States spends much more on healthcare per capita than other wealthy countries, yet overall, health outcomes in the U.S. are worse than in other wealthy countries. At times like this, we stop to think how we can do better. In this webinar recorded on April 23, 2020, Joe Parks, MD, Medical Director of the National Council of Behavioral Health explores two contrasting models of payment for behavioral health services, followed by a discussion with participants about quality. What is it and how do we measure it? What does it mean for Maine organizations and private practitioners? Most importantly, how do we do this together to create a roadmap to achieve the outcomes we value and desire.
The Alliance for Addiction and Mental Health Services and the Co-Occurring Collaborative Serving Maine’s annual meetings in partnership with the Behavioral Health Community Collaborative bring this program to you. In the fall we will hope to reschedule a live program to extend this conversation.
