AIS Health, 3M Partner for June 15 Webinar on Using Risk Adjustment to Manage Variation in Health Care
Washington, DC (PRWEB) June 01, 2017 -- AIS Health and 3M Health Information Systems are pleased to announce “Managing Variation in Health Care: The Unique Role of Risk Adjustment,” a complimentary June 15 webinar. In this hour-long program, L. Gordon Moore, M.D., Senior Medical Director of Clinical Strategy & Value Based Care at 3M, and Consultant Erika Johnson will discuss how to use risk adjustment to reveal variation — the difference between the quality and utilization rates you can expect (expected rate) and the rates that actually occur (observed rates) — and how that variation impacts payment rates and performance goals.
Webinar participants will learn:
- How understanding variability can help form strategies and tactics to impact outcomes
- What goes into calculating an expected rate
- How expected rates are used to develop budgets and determine key performance indicators (KPIs)
- How to monitor performance against a budget and KPIs to unmask variability
