Purchase Value-Based Reimbursement Series to SAVE 19%
In a value-based reimbursement environment, the utilization management (UM) process is critical to ensure cost effective care. UM must be a collaborative initiative, incorporating the case management department with physicians, nurses, and other ancillary departments. This program will focus on the role of UM in a value-based reimbursement environment, and review UM in today’s contemporary case management models.
Our experts will discuss best-practices for your work when providing the UM process in a hybrid environment, like UM for bundled payment patients versus the traditional commercial patient. Attendees will also be provided with tips and strategies for streamlining the UM process.
