A new webinar focused on the practical best practices for hitting benchmarks to deliver improved care, functional outcomes and cost savings will be available on Wed., Dec. 16, 2015 at 12:15 pm EST.
The webinar will feature Michael A. Kelly, MD, chairman of orthopedic surgery at Hackensack University Medical Center and director of the Insall Scott Kelly Institute for Orthopaedics and Sports Medicine and Denise A. McGinley, RN, MSNAd, director of the Center for Orthopaedic Innovation St. Luke’s Medical Center in Phoenix.
HUMC has participated in the Bundled Payments for Care Improvement Initiative since January 2013, including his experience with costs associated with the post-acute experience, reducing high-cost discharge to skilled nursing facilities and increasing discharges home. Dr. Kelly will also address how the program made changes to the way they deliver care and work with other provider partners across the entire care continuum.
St. Luke’s Center for Orthopaedic Innovation has participated in the Bundled Payments for Care Improvement Initiative for three years. CMS is learning from St. Luke’s about the steps institutions can take to reduce per patient costs due to the hospital’s impressive results.
