Implementing New Programs for Dual Eligibles: Benefit Design, Enrollment and Performance
Virtual Conference • Tuesday, October 8, 2013 • 11:00-5:00 Eastern time

Benefit Design, Enrollment and Performance Assessment

Massive new initiatives for Medicare-Medicaid dual eligibles now are out of the planning stage and starting to be implemented. And no matter how much thought, outreach and coordination have gone into the conceptual framework of these programs — whether they are ones funded through CMS under the Affordable Care Act or via states’ own resources — implementation presents a brand new set of serious challenges. They include benefit design, enrollment processes, provider contract restructuring, and performance measurement and improvement.

When you and your management team attend this unique virtual conference on Oct. 8 from the convenience of your own office, you’ll hear sessions led by many of the nation’s foremost duals experts, including health plan executives and top consultants to industry and state governments. For one registration fee, your entire management team will gain valuable practical intelligence and training on topics such as:

  • The financial arrangements in the duals programs, including capitation rates, risk corridors, quality withholds and minimum medical loss ratio requirements.
  • Benefit design, including care-continuity provisions, and appeals procedures.
  • Enrollment processes, including outreach methods and strategies to minimize “opt outs.”
  • Program assessment, with strategies for detecting problems and remedying them before they have an adverse impact on clinical and financial outcomes.
