SUMMARY:Virtual Discussion on Care Models
DESCRIPTION:CMMI and Medicaid Programs are experimenting with care models for people with serious illness more often than ever before. Between the launch of ACO REACH\, GUIDE\, Enhancing Oncology\, and Cardiac Bundled Payment by CMMI and expanded access to care for Health-Related Social Needs and Palliative Care services by Medicaid programs\, there is tremendous opportunity for health plans and other payors to incorporate C-TAC’s care model principles for people with serious illness into their approach to delivering care. Let’s discuss these opportunities and hear from health plans and systems participating in these initiatives across the country. \nPlease join: \nTorrie Fields\, MPH\, C-TAC Strategic Advisor & Managing Parter\, TF Analytics \nand \nLuke Scuitto\, Partnerships Director\, C-TAC \n\nThis is a closed meeting for MPC members only.

SUMMARY:The 2023 C-TAC Advanced Care Transformation Index: Supporting Our State Champions to Create National Change
DESCRIPTION:If you’re looking for data and trends to make your case for improving care for those with serious illness at the state and regional level\, look to the 2023 ACT Index Report.  \nImplementing new policy recommendations for care delivery and services can be a multi-year\, complex effort. And one of the biggest challenges our state partners identify is securing early buy-in from policy makers\, payors\, foundations and other stakeholders in an action plan. Think of the Index as a compass that can help give you and your fellow stakeholders objective data supporting the direction of your plan. The Index can provide the foundation for common ground among all members of our coalition.   \nThis webinar will share updates and insights from the 2023 ACT Index Report and will offer examples for how you can use your state scorecard to develop an action plan for change.   \n  \nSpeakers: \nTorrie Fields\, MPH\, C-TAC Strategic Advisor & Managing Partner\, TFAnalytics \nLea Tessitore\, MSB\, MBA\, Director\, Health Equity and Outcomes\, Bioethicist\, TFAnalytics \n  \nFor registration and more information\, contact Jennifer Driscoll\, Operations Director at jdriscoll@thectac.org.

SUMMARY:Improving Quality of Life for People with Heart Failure through Integration of Palliative Care Services: A Pilot Project
DESCRIPTION:Join the Coalition to Transform Advanced Care and the American Heart Association for a webinar: \nImproving Quality of Life for People with Heart Failure through Integration of Palliative Care Services: A Pilot Project\nPalliative care can improve the patient’s journey in heart failure. Although heart failure is a serious illness\, people with heart failure have low rates of utilization. While palliative care has bettered clinical outcomes\, enhanced patient\, and provider experience of care\, and reduced unnecessary spending\, few models have focused specifically on the impact of palliative care on those with heart failure in a value-based payment system\, including evaluating the appropriate time for referral to palliative care and its specific impact on outcomes related to the quality and cost of care.  Recognizing this need\, the American Heart Association (AHA) and the Coalition to Transform Advanced Care (C-TAC) designed the pilot project “Improving Quality of Life for People with Heart Failure through Integration of Palliative Care Services.”  Join the webinar to learn about the accomplishments of the first two phases and the plans for the third phase. \nThursday\, February 29\, 12noon – 1:00 pm ET \n\nTorrie Fields\, MPH\, Strategic Advisor at C-TAC and Managing Partner at Torrie Fields Analytics\nVishal Goyal\, MD\, Pilot-Project Site Leader at Hawai’i Pacific Health Medical Group\, Hospice and Palliative Medicine\nMark Schoeberl\, C-TAC Board Member and Executive Vice President of Advocacy for the American Heart Association \nLea Tessitore\, MSB\, MBA\, Director of Health Equity & Outcomes at Torrie Fields Analytics \n\n  \nJoin Zoom Meeting\nhttps://us02web.zoom.us/j/88046099426?pwd=ekF5SjZNeVdwdFhzZlFUN25UcVoxdz09
