Disruption and Innovation in Health and Health Care

The game-changing forces of disruption and innovation that have been so profoundly unleashed this hurricane season have their equivalent in health and health care – not as abrupt and immediately overwhelming, perhaps, but no less pervasive and no less profound. This panel will build on this connection to help attendees take stock of how these forces are at work and impacting them, whether their roles are as patient/consumers, purchasers, providers, payers or suppliers. Solutions now gaining momentum in the marketplace will also be explored with an eye toward helping attendees shape these impacts in ways that will empower them in these roles.

 Dr. Leutzinger will zero in two core issues where disruptive innovation can lead to farreaching benefits for how our healthcare system functions. For the first, reducing waste and abuse, the following will be highlighted: really focusing on prevention, serious tort reform, reducing administrative costs, and increasing competition. For the second, revising how to evaluate company worth, the critical role of human capital will be examined.

 Dr. Allen will focus on an overarching dynamic whose disruptive innovation impacts are reshaping the entire sector – the need to maximize the value of every dollar spent on improving population health. The science and management of value-driven population health, a new approach for achieving this goal, and the latest updates on a new community initiative for bringing this approach to Atlanta, will be discussed.

Time will be left for Q&A at the end to enable attendees to interact with the speakers
