Interdependence of Public, Private, & Federal Healthcare
2024-11-14 18:00 - 19:30 (America/New_York)
Join us for a dynamic virtual panel via Zoom! The event is approved for 1.5 virtual interactive educational credits!

The traditional boundaries between Public, Private and Federal Healthcare delivery have become more permeable as healthcare regulations and requirements have changed. The beneficiary population can no longer be considered as belonging to its system alone. Patients seeks services outside healthcare systems for many reasons, including access, capacity, and cost. Traditionally, migration between healthcare systems would be discouraged through financial measures or by threat of disenrollment. Today healthcare systems rely on each other to provide services that they cannot provide for financial, geographical or accessibility reasons.
The Veterans Administration and Department of Defense both rely on partnerships with public and private healthcare systems to provide care to Veterans, Service Members, and their dependents beyond the capability of the Federal system. Likewise, public and private healthcare systems enter into affiliation agreements with Federal sector healthcare systems for academic and research-based support.
Through this discussion, participants will gain an understanding of the complexities related to documentation of episodes of care, reimbursement for completed care, and information technology challenges; the interoperability and cooperation of Public, Private and Federal Healthcare Systems during natural or manmade disasters; and the future of Public, Private and Federal Healthcare Delivery as it relates to the continued homogenization of their respective patient populations.

2024-10-29 07:00 - 08:30
Numerous public policy and legislative issues around healthcare delivery and public health affect healthcare organizations and demand involvement of their leaders to respond and make improvements. These issues often relate to improving population health, access and coverage through Medicaid and other programs, improving value, addressing consumer issues and workforce shortages, and more. Learning these issues and being involved in policy and organizational responses is important for healthcare leaders, regardless of how directly they may be involved.

Digital Health in the Healthcare Delivery System
2024-09-24 18:00 - 19:30
This event requires a two-step registration. Please register on EventBrite and ACHE!

The pandemic has only accelerated what was already a fastmoving train toward more of healthcare becoming digital. Whether it is the increasing need for telehealth services, the rapidly growing field of artificial intelligence, or advances toward more personalized medicine, the intersection of healthcare and digital technology is here to stay. In addition, digital health has become a healthcare access imperative. Its innovative benefits are of vital interest amid the implementation of most healthcare regulations. This program surveys some of the current uses and organizational deployment of digital health strategies. The discussion includes adoption and innovation across the clinical and patient perspectives. The technical, operational, regulatory, and financial/reimbursement aspects of the development of these programs will also be investigated. The expanding role that digital health holds in daily life and its direction into the future of the healthcare delivery system will be explored.

Join us for an in-person happy hour and panel conversation on Change Management in Healthcare & Alternate Care Models!

Join us for an evening of networking and education at The Founder’s Inn in Virginia Beach, VA. This event will include two interactive education topics, along with dinner, and networking with other healthcare leaders across Hampton Roads.
Agenda
3:30-4:30pm Networking Happy Hour

6:00 – 6:30pm Dinner
6:30-8:00pm Educational Panel 2: Leading Change
8:00-8:30pm Networking & Program Closing

Value in Developing Alternative Care Models
Developing new delivery models that embrace alternative payment models goes beyond simply supplying patients with information at time of checkout or discharge. It includes a commitment to patient-centered care, providing clear and useful information to patients, helping patients establish goals and plans to live a healthier life, creating a team of clinicians and administrative staff with clearly understood roles and responsibilities, and using comprehensive systems to support follow-up and tracking of patients. As healthcare moves increasingly outside the four walls of the hospital, it is critical that healthcare executives are well-versed in the opportunities and challenges with alternative care delivery models. Learning how to incorporate these new models into a health system or practice can support patients as well as healthcare organizations.
Panel Members:
Alex Ritchie, Administrative Fellow, Sentara Health (Moderator)
David Collins, Senior Manager of Home & Community Services, VCU Health
Mary Morin, Senior Vice President & Enterprise Chief Nursing Officer, Sentara Health
Robin Baldauf, Chief Nursing Offier Hampton Roads Market, Bon Secours Mercy Health

Successfully Leading Change
The healthcare environment is constantly changing, and provider organizations must adapt in order to survive and thrive. Organizations are frequently asked to respond to legislative changes, market fluctuations, safety concerns, and patient or staff demands. The success of major change implementation hinges on how it communicated and how it impacts individuals and processes in the organization. Stakeholders frequently resist change for many reasons, including not having enough information, fear of how the change will affect them, comfort with the status quo, and not understanding the benefits of the change. For change to truly be effective, a leader must know how to effectively communicate the benefits, minimize the barriers, and describe the processes. Learn from your peers as they share approaches that were successful and those that impeded the change process.
Panel Members:
Niesha Townsend, Associate Director Administration, U.S. Navy (Moderator)
Jack Warburton, Vice President Mental Health Services, Children’s Hospital of the King’s Daughters
Kelsie Stephenson, Chief Market HR Strategic Partner, Bon Secours Mercy Health
Kirk Hansen, Director Organizational Change Management, Sentara Health

Inclusive Leadership in Healthcare
2024-07-11 18:00 - 19:30
Join the Virginia Chapters of ACHE, NAHSE, And NALHE for a FREE virtual panel conversation on Inclusive Leadership in Healthcare!

With the increasing emphasis on comprehensive diversity, equity and inclusion initiatives targeted toward improving patient access and outcomes, there is a critical need for healthcare leadership to turn their lens internally to make the biggest impact. Even with the best of intentions, many hospitals and health systems are falling short in embodying the very principles and approaches they are promoting for their patients and communities.
In addition, the business implications and imperatives healthcare organizations face concerning diversity, equity, and inclusion are immense. Diverse communities often require different care needs, improved quality, new or modified operational processes and services, and strategic planning for a varied patient demographic. The continuum of care will need to be considered to best meet the needs of these communities. It is incumbent on healthcare organizations and their leaders to both understand and embrace the needs of diverse populations. As such, inclusive leadership will be critical to the organization’s financial and operational success.
Moderator: Melody Pannell, Director of Diversity & Community Engagement, UVA Health

Equity of Care
2024-04-27 13:00 - 15:00 | Sentara Leigh Hospital, 830 Kempsville Road, Norfolk, VA, 23502, United States
Join us for an in-person event featuring an interactive community service food drive and a meaningful panel discussion on Equity of Care!

Event sponsored by Sentara Leigh Hospital!
Overview
Quality of care should not vary based on the patients’ socioeconomic, racial, ethnic, gender, or geographic background. It is known however, that there is a healthcare divide in the U.S. especially in vulnerable populations including: those lacking health insurance (or are underfunded), low-income families, racial and ethnic minorities, and LGBTQ+ populations. The Affordable Care Act aimed to address access and equity of care issues by expanding health insurance coverage. Deficits in access to care change the way healthcare is delivered and financed.
Equity of care is a core principle of the healthcare management profession and is also an ethical and business imperative. Healthcare organizations must ensure their staff is educated on disparities to appropriately address the needs of patients from diverse cultural and economic backgrounds to provide equitable high-quality care to all. It has been shown that patient-centered care improves clinical outcomes and patient satisfaction while reducing medical errors and costs. Eliminating healthcare disparities provides a strategic component to ensure organizational excellence and long-term financial viability.

Gender Equity in Healthcare Leadership
2024-03-14 18:00 - 19:30
Join HCAT and The VA Chapter of Women in Healthcare for a virtual educational event on Gender Equity in Healthcare Leadership.

In the US healthcare industry, women represent 65 percent of the workforce. Despite their significant workforce representation, they are under-represented in leadership – only making up 30 percent of C-suite teams and 13 percent of CEOs. Several studies have shown that diversity produces better outcomes – more innovation, more creative solutions to problems, and ultimately better financial outcomes. Women bring in a critical vantage point to the industry and according to one study; women comprise 25 percent of the leadership among the highest grossing hospitals and medical centers as compared to 18 percent for the industry. Efforts to improve women representation in the senior ranks of healthcare management must include women from all backgrounds and experiences. When intersectionality considerations are incorporated into gender equity strategies, organizations can reap tangible, proven benefits including better talent recruitment and retention, stronger DEI outcomes, and improved organizational performance.

Speakers:
Dr. Amber Price, President, Sentara Williamsburg Regional Medical Center
Dr. Shanta Bland, Performance Improvement Program Manager, Virginia Commonwealth University Health System
Stephanie Ross, MHA, Program Manager UNOS

Meeting the Needs of Today's Healthcare Consumer
2024-02-29 17:30 - 19:00
Please join the Healthcare Administrators of Tidewater ACHE chapter for an educational event on healthcare consumerism!

Consumer-driven services in business and the need for efficiency are accelerating changes in the way organizations operate and compete. Many consumers today are taking greater control of their purchasing power and healthcare decisions and are demanding excellence in service. The challenge is how to give them the best service in a meaningful and economic way. Organizational survival relies on healthcare leaders with the vision, determination, and courage to test various methods of enhancing the patient experience. Patient expectations are being set by other industries and healthcare disrupters like retail clinics. How can hospitals and health systems provide the same level of customer service to stay competitive?

Virtual Event, Thursday February 29th from 5:30pm-7:00pm.

This event is approved for 1.5 ACHE Face-To-Face Credits!
