Medicaid – SCHIP
Expansion – Opportunities
for Specialty Health
The
reauthorization of SCHIP,
commonly known as CHIPRA,
includes an expansion of
eligibility and a focus
on enrolling eligible children.
CHIPRA also expands specialty
benefits covered in this
insurance program for low
income children by mandating
that states cover dental
benefits, enhancing mental
health services, and increasing
the number of children
eligible for Early Periodic
Screening Detection and
Treatment services. This
webinar features a senior
policy staffer from the
national association representing
state Medicaid Program
directors discussing how
he thinks states will go
about implementing these
specialty health mandates. |

Patient Centered
Care – The Technology to Make it Work
One
of the
most
scathing
criticisms
of the
US health
care
system
is that
it lacks
coordination
of general
and specialty
services.
The system
is provider
centered
by centralizing
medical
records
for the
provider’s
convenience,
rather
than
for the
use of
multiple
caregivers
that
a patient
might
need.
Information
technology
is being
rapidly
being
deployed
that
will
promote
patient
centered
care
and that
can be
accessed
at any
site
of care.
Come
and learn
from
an industry
leader
in applying
technology
to solve
communication
gaps
and enhance
the quality
of patient
care. |

ROI
for Specialty Health: The Opportunities
and Challenges for Measurement
Specialty health is often promoted
as a preventive service and an investment
in health. Prevention is like apple pie – everyone
supports it. So why isn’t everyone
supporting specialty health benefits?
This session features an actuary who
shows the math on the value of specialty
health. Learn how employer-purchasers
view the return on investment for specialty
health, and how specialty health organizations
can more effectively document their return
and describe their value to potential
clients. |

to hear what NCQA really requires around
delegation. Participation in this webinar
will help specialty health organizations
better understand health plan expectations
and how to ensure the satisfaction of their
