As executive director of the nonprofit Health Care Incentives Improvement Institute\, de Brantes has been working with health plans and providers to implement bundled payment programs since 2007.  \nAs we reported recently\, bundled payment initiatives from the federal Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services have been criticized for not taking full advantage of this innovative payment model. In the private sector\, however\, health insurers\, hospitals\, and physicians are demonstrating how to fully develop bundled payment programs and make the operational adjustments needed to ensure their long-term success. \nIn this webinar on Wednesday\, Sept. 2\, at 1:30 pm ET\, de Brantes will discuss how providers and payers are getting good results from bundled payment programs and expanding many of these initiatives. \nAbout the speaker \nFrançois de Brantes\, M.S.\, M.B.A.\, is executive director of the Health Care Incentives Improvement Institute (HCI3)\, a not-for-profit company that designs and implements innovative payment and benefit plan design programs. HCI3 works with states\, employers\, health plans and provider organizations\, as well as national consultanciesto advise them on payment and delivery system reform. \nPreviously\, de Brantes was the program leader for various health care initiatives at GE’s corporate headquarters\, responsible for developing and implementing GE’s Active Consumer strategy. \nHe has has been published in peer-reviewed journals such as the New England Journal of Medicine\, the Journal of the American Medical Association and Health Affairs and is frequently quoted in national media including The New York Times. He has also published two books\, the latest being “The Incentive Cure: The Real Relief For Health Care.” \nJoseph Burns\, AHCJ core topic leader on health insurance\, will moderate the webcast.  \n \n\nFrançois de Brantes \n\n\nJoseph Burns URL:https://healthjournalism.org/event/an-examination-of-bundled-payment-how-insurers-and-providers-are-dispelling-the-myths/ CATEGORIES:Webinar END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/New_York:20150930T010000 DTEND;TZID=America/New_York:20150930T010000 DTSTAMP:20231109T162509Z CREATED:20231103T163656Z LAST-MODIFIED:20231109T162509Z UID:26123-1443574800-1443574800@healthjournalism.org SUMMARY:Tracking U.S. population changes and their impact on health DESCRIPTION:Urban Institute researchers H.
