welcome

ATLANTA, MAY 7-9, 2014

Dear attendees, speakers and sponsors: On behalf of all of us at The Institute for HealthCare Consumerism, we want to welcome and thank you for participating in the fifth annual IHC FORUM & Expo conference. Since its origin, IHC FORUM has been the epicenter of the health care consumerism mega-trend, and now in its fifth year, the industry is adopting its founding principles at an accelerated rate. We want to thank those speakers, attendees, partners and sponsors who have been with us previously and have returned once again to the Cobb Galleria Centre. This venue has been a gracious host over the years, and we will return to this location again for the sixth annual IHC FORUM & Expo in May 2015. While the IHC FORUM conference series continues to provide access to mastering all aspects of implementing a successful health and benefits program, at the same time, we are well aware that many employers are currently implementing or considering a private exchange, a model that represents the most significant shift in how Americans purchase benefits in years. Therefore, this year’s program provides deeper and wider exchange education than any other conference out there. Don’t miss our pre-conference event on Day One — an in-depth workshop to help employers better understand exchanges and defined contribution led by the Private Exchange Evaluation Collaborative and PwC. At the end of Day Two — before the evening Wine & Cheese Reception — industry leaders representing different exchange models will meet for a not-to-miss panel discussion. Throughout the conference, key workshops and SHARE sessions will cover the exchanges in more detail. After these events, attendees will be equipped with a much better understanding of which models best fit certain employee populations. Just as the health and benefits industry is making significant changes, so too is the IHC FORUM Conference Series. This year, we are proud to offer our new IHC University Certification Program where participants can become Certified in HealthCare Consumerism (CHC) by attending our special hands-on “Making Health Care Consumerism Work” pre-conference certification course, attending IHC FORUM general sessions and applying to take our 100-question online certification exam. With five pre-conference events, six general sessions, 32 workshops, over 100 speakers, 60+ exhibitors and two evening networking receptions this is the largest IHC FORUM & Expo conference we have produced yet. And it could not have come at a more important time for the industry. Whether you are on the path to health care consumerism or deep into implementation, IHC FORUM & Expo will provide you with the tools needed for a successful journey as “The Solution to Health Care Reform.” We would like to extend a special thanks to our first-ever platinum sponsor: ConnectYourCare. We would also like to extend our thanks to our two gold sponsors: WageWorks and HealthSparq. And to our many silver sponsors: Alegeus Technologies, Health Savings Administrators, FusionHealth, PayFlex, MasterCard, Visa Healthcare, Foundation for Chiropractic Progress, Ceridian LifeWorks, Evolution1, gBehavior, RedBrick Health, Truven Health Analytics, ClearCost Health, Interactive Health, Hooper Holmes Health & Wellness, Healthstat and Alere. Again, we sincerely appreciate your participation and look forward to your feedback at the end of the event. Thank you..

Pre-Conference I Certification: A Roadmap for Making Healthcare Consumerism Work: The Steps and Plan Wednesday, May 7th, 2014 • 9:00 a.m. – 1:00 p.m. This pre-conference certification course is targeted to employers. This course is a pre-requisite for The IHC Healthcare Consumerism Certification designation of Certified in HealthCare Consumerism (CHC). Healthcare consumerism is different than Consumer-Driven Health Care (CDHC) and account based plans. Healthcare consumerism is a more inclusive and robust approach to employee engagement, behavioral change, human capital, health literacy, and personalized health and healthcare. To implement Healthcare Consumerism you need a roadmap — a multi-year strategy and plan of attack.

Bachman

Are you an employer confused about: How to start? What to do next? Where to go? …or even Why you should implement Healthcare Consumerism? Do you know the right questions to ask your consultants? Can you show a clear healthcare benefit vision and strategy to your senior management? “Making Health Care Consumerism Work: The Steps and Plan” will show employers how they can approach the many decisions necessary for successful design strategies and implementation. The program includes interactive exercises and group discussions. You will come away with principles, strategies, and implementation options unique to your company. Also included will be an explanation and discussion of private & public exchanges, accountable care organizations and specific issues related to ACA implementation now thru 2018. This program will include a 235 page personalized workbook for your notes and exercise results. The workbook will include information, website links, and guidelines for post-conference implementation. Principles Consumerism Vision Statement Strategies Personal Care Accounts

Wellness Disease Management Decision Support Tools Incentives & Rewards Viewing Healthcare Consumerism by Generations Creating Consumerism Plans Development Time Frames Financial Analysis

Upon completion you will be prepared to lead your company through a structured process of change. You will come away with a better understanding and an approach for developing an integrated roadmap to the future. You will be better able to work with your consultants, ask more direct questions, and be better informed on current options for an effective program of healthcare consumerism. You will better understand your options to use public and/or private exchanges and Accountable Care Organizations (ACOs). Don’t waste time and money on programs that fail to fit into a multi-year strategy! Join us at this pre-conference certification course for a structured effective way forward into the world of health reform and healthcare consumerism. At the conclusion of this course you will be eligible to register for, take and pass The IHC Healthcare Consumerism Certification Exam, offered online directly after the conference. Upon passing the exam, you will receive your designation as Certified in HealthCare Consumerism (CHC).

Professional Credits Available This 2014 FORUM & EXPO Pre-Conference Workshop has been approved for 4 (HR (General)) recertification credit hours toward PHR, SPHR and GPHR recertification through the HR Certification Institute. For more information about certification or recertification, please visit the HR Certification Institute website at www.hrci.org.

Pre-Conference II Private Exchanges: Helping Employers Understand Defined Contribution and Private Exchanges Wednesday, May 7th, 2014 • 9:00 a.m. – 1:00 p.m. This hands-on, pre-conference course will help employers and those working with them understand the various exchange models and key points in determining whether a private exchange is right for your company and your employees. More and more, employers in the United States are responding to industry surveys similarly. They see private health insurance exchanges as a real option and perhaps the clearest path and means to accomplish several of their primary goals as it relates to healthcare and employee benefits: • • • • •

Cut health care costs internally Reduce administrative burden internally Improve choices provided to employees covered under the company health plan(s) Increase access to coverage for those employees not currently under a company plan Maintain valid options for active and retired employees

Yet, they state that the key questions remain unanswered. With so many options in the market from parties with vested interests — such as brokers, consultants, and even the insurance companies themselves — who can be trusted to deliver the right fit solution for us, an employer with so many unique benefits requirements and distinct employee situations? This pre-conference course is designed to answer many of your questions as employers and to support you in the development of a singular strategy related to private health insurance exchanges that works in your company’s sole case. We will start by ensuring your goals, objectives and strategies fit with the private exchange model. We will then together evaluate various potential choices among the many types of exchange vendors, and attempt to pinpoint credible sources for your business. We will explore the challenges present when considering exchange solutions. And review critical features and capabilities to look for and weigh while on your search. You will hear from peers who are in a similar place along the decision timeline and you will learn additional contemplations that must be factored into your own timelines. You will leave this course with unbiased information from independent advisors whose desire is to help you gain comparative data on various types of exchange solutions, and to identify helpful resources for decision support, in case purchasing from a private exchange is a path you ultimately take. Forty-five percent of employers say they are considering private exchanges for their full-time employees before 2018. Nearly 70% say they believe it is important that their advisor is independent of the exchange they are considering. If your organization is one of these employers, or you just want to learn more about what others are considering for defined contributions and private exchange solutions, you don’t want to miss this course.

Pre-Conference III Employer Forum on Prescription Drugs: “Is Transparency a Myth?” Wednesday, May 7th, 2014 • 9:00 a.m. – 1:00 p.m. This pre-conference boot camp class is targeted to employers. Join two employer representatives, a consultant and a PBM executive to discuss the ins and outs of the PBM industry. For the first hour, we will cover basic PBM industry terminology and concepts. But then, engage in our lively discussion as we explore this single question: Does transparency really exists in the pharmacy benefits industry? Bring your contract with your PBM and discuss with our experts solutions for improvements. Walk away from this session with a “game plan” tailored to you and your company on how to solve the most complex and mysterious benefit program in your portfolio. This four-hour pre-conference session is for those employers just starting out, needing an overview of pharmacy benefits, or desiring a complete evaluation of their current contract with their PBM. The class is set in an informal, interactive format in which you will find yourself asking dozens of questions to other employers who have been down this road ahead of you, and discussing options with leading consultants and executives really “in the know” about the pharmacy industry. During this presentation, you will learn the basics about the pharmacy industry. Specifically, we will cover: • • • • • • •

Key definitions of terms used in the PBM industry Benchmarks to compare your plan to in terms of copays, costs and discounts Deep dive into rebates and specialty programs Elements of a PBM Contract (traditional versus pass through) Auditing and Fraud, Waste and Abuse Plan design alternatives How to build the “perfect” pharmacy benefits program

The session will conclude with a discussion of marketplace trends, and what to expect in the future from plan sponsors regarding their pharmacy benefit program offerings. Pharmacy benefits is often misunderstood and a mystery to many employers. Who really manages pharmacy benefits and what are the tools that can help an employer manage this benefit better? When can an employer manage the benefit and when must the plan rely on the Pharmacy Benefit Manager (PBM)? These questions and many more will be answered in our interactive conversation and learning session on pharmacy benefits. The session will start off with basic definitions so that we are all talking the same language. Key terms such as AWP, MAC, WAC, U&C and ASP will be discussed and defined. Knowing these terms and having these terms documented by your PBM is critical in understanding how your pharmacy benefit plan works. Next we will explore the contract between an employer and the PBM. Is your contract pass through or traditional and what does that mean for your plan? Key to better management of the pharmacy benefit is to understand such basic provisions as liability, termination and auditing rights in a PBM contract. Further, the session will explore contract documentation of who does what (i.e. plan design, fiduciary responsibility, eligibility maintenance) so that employees receive pharmacy benefits promptly and accurately.

We will also explore typical plan design features. Are your copays in line with other employers? Do you offer mobile solutions for your employees to find low cost, high quality pharmacies leading to better consumers of health care? Have you thought about limiting your retail network, providing an onsite pharmacy, eliminating mail order, providing a 90 day retail program or requiring specialty drugs to be purchased through a specialty vendor? Learn what is standard and what “leading edge” employers are doing in the pharmacy benefits area. Lastly, we will focus on clinical programs that are important in controlling cost and limiting waste and abuse. These programs include prior authorizations, quantity limits, step therapy and formulary management. Do you or does your PBM have a program in place to attack fraud, estimated at 10% of costs by law enforcement personnel? Learn what your responsibilities are for plan management and what you can expect your PBM to do. We will also be introducing our Employer Pharmacy Benefit Toolkit which includes over 150 questions for you and your PBM to complete. If you wish to complete the Toolkit subsequent to the conference, the Toolkit is scored and evaluated and can be provided back to you with a “game plan” strategy of items for improvement in the pharmacy benefit.

Hayes

Davis

D’Acquisto

In the last half hour, we will ask for an interactive session to develop the “perfect” pharmacy benefit plan. Does this French “perfect” plan include all 65,000 pharmacies in America? What about a six tier copay structure? What pricing is available from PBMs and what should you ask for in your next RFP? Upon completion you will be prepared to lead your company through a structured process of evaluation of your pharmacy benefit. You will come away with a better understanding and an approach for developing your pharmacy benefit. You will be better able to work with your consultants and PBM, ask more direct questions, and be better informed on current options for an effective pharmacy benefit program. Don’t waste time and money on programs that fail to fit into the strategy that is “right” for you and your employees! Join us at this pre-conference class for a structured effective way forward into the world of your pharmacy benefits.

Pre-Conference IV FORUM for Physicians, Politicians, and Policy Makers “A Dose of Reality” — A Panel of 8 Leading Physicians Report on the State of Health Care in America Wednesday, May 7th, 2014 • 9:00 a.m. – 1:00 p.m. This pre-conference FORUM is targeted for all healthcare stakeholders, especially employer executives, other physicians, policy makers and politicians. This four-hour pre-conference session will be a forum for leading doctors to tell us exactly how the law is affecting America’s health, healthcare and care system. This meeting will be staged similar to a Congressional Hearing, and have advocates for and against the ACA law. The forum-type discussion will be appealing to HR directors, vendors, and businesses that work in the healthcare arena, and will attract policy makers and physicians who are interested in improving health care delivery in our country. The audience will include Fed and State politicians and those running in 2014. The course will begin with a non-partisan, factual discussion about the ACA and other models. This first session will be 2 hours and will include a panel of 4 leading primary care physicians and other doctors who will discuss how the ACA is currently affecting their patients and the doctor-patient relationship – both the positive and not so positive effects. The focus will be on actual facts about the Session One Speakers: • Moderator/Speaker: Hal C. Scherz MD, FACS, FAAP, President and Founder- Docs 4 Patient Care, VP Georgia Urology, Assoc Clinical Professor of Urology- Emory University and Children’s Healthcare of Atlanta • Speakers: Lawrence Sanders Jr., MD, Associate Professor of Medicine, Morehouse School of Medicine, Richard A. Armstrong, MD, FACS, Chief Operating Officer, National Board of Directors, DOCS 4 Patient Care, Jeffrey B. English, MD, President- Docs 4 Patient Care, Georgia Chapter, Director of Clinical Research, Multiple Sclerosis Center of Atlanta, Medical Director, Sports Concussion Institute at Atlanta Topics will Include: Dr. D Sanders – will address the favorable aspects of the ACA for the primary care physician and patients. Patient access to doctors to control costs by managing diseases more effectively. Dr. Richard Armstrong - To discuss EHR and how the ACA has made the general concept of record availability into the final nail in the coffin for MD’s. Will also talk about Medicare and how the ACA will force doctors out of medicare, with patients finding it harder to find a doctor? Dr. Hal Scherz – To talk about Quality Effectiveness and how the ACA will turn this idea of “best practices” set up by physicians into mandates and rationing set forth by politicians and bureaucrats. The mammogram, prostate cancer rec’s thus far fits into this nicely. Will extrapolate into how this will expand and make it worse. Will also talk about physician workforce trends. Dr. Jeff English – will discuss how CMS has set up metrics that physicians have to follow or get penalized. Will talk about how United Health downgraded many physicians based on inappropriate use of these metrics. Will talk about how the patient access is being restricted. Mostly focus on the Exchanges. He will demonstrate how high copays and the fact that health patients will have to pay more to see a doctor that is non-preferred are influencing patients to avoiding doctors altogether.

way the law was written and real life discussions on how it is being translated into care. Topics will include the availability of access to physicians and hospitals, the access and tiering of services and medications, and the relocation of private practice into hospital settings. The panel will consist of a wide variety of physicians. This session will start off analyzing what is really happening in a world with ACA as the law of the land, the impact on patients and their ability to access and receive high quality healthcare, followed by several free market ideas that are really working. The second session will also be two hours. It will present a fresh panel of 4 doctors (employed, concierge, private, etc.) who have focused their careers on innovation and are currently advocating approaches to decrease healthcare costs while improving patient care/outcomes. This session will start with the economic implications of the ACA and the healthcare community’s response to the pressures within the law. This will establish a starting point from which to introduce several of the recent innovative solutions that have effectively increased access and reduced costs. Emphasis will be given to delivery designs, direct pay, concierge medicine and similar programs. The session will conclude with a discussion on market driven models, why they are different, and why they work best. Market-driven innovation in a free, open healthcare marketplace habitually introduces superior solutions that address the failures of the ACA, and corrects (instead of exacerbates) the rising healthcare cost curve.

Session Two Speakers: • Moderator/Speaker: Brian E. Hill, MD, Urology Specialists of Atlanta, Member, Docs4PatientCare, Treasurer, Emory HealthCare Network • Speakers: Lee S. Gross, MD, Co-Founder, Epiphany Health, National Executive Board, Docs4PatientCare, Josh Umbehr, MD, CEO, AtlasMD Concierge Family Practice, Jeffrey J. Segal, M.D., J.D., FACS, Founder and CEO, Medical Justice Services, Inc. and eMerit Topics will Include: Dr. Brian Hill – will address how the growing financial pressure, regulatory burden and uncertainty impacting the medical community as a result of the Affordable Care Act are leading to consolidation in the healthcare industry. This shift along with the demographic changes in society has potentially dire consequences for the business community. With increasing numbers of insured covered by the cost-controlled, low-reimbursement insurance of Medicaid, Medicare and the insurance exchanges, the current payment cross subsidization from the commercial market to cover the unmet medical costs of hospitals and physicians will increase further. When this is combined with the rapid consolidation leading to oligopolies in the healthcare marketplace, substantial upward pressure on insurance premiums will ensue, placing both businesses and individuals at greater financial risk. Businesses that are aware of these trends and demonstrate a willingness to seek out new models that more effectively deliver high quality care at lower cost will be able to better manage their healthcare costs and thrive. Dr. Josh Umbehr – will talk about the rapidly growing direct primary care movement and how it has potential to change the face of outpatient medicine in this country. By shrugging off the burden of insurance and government red tape, record physicians are able to offer their patients better care and significant savings. Dr. Lee Gross – will discuss his model for affordable primary care services, including routine screening and imaging. Dr. Jeff Segal – will discuss reforms in medical malpractice and how defensive medical practices drive up costs.

General Sessions Opening Keynote Address - Day One: Health Reform 2.0: The Great Debate Wednesday, May 7th, 2014 • 2:30 p.m. – 4:30 p.m. Witness a rare face-to-face debate between two of the most influential health care experts as they battle with ideas regarding the future of health reform in the United States. John C. Goodman, PhD – president and CEO of the National Center for Policy Analysis and author of the new book, Priceless: Curing the Healthcare Crisis. He is widely known as the “Father of Health Savings Accounts” and Modern Healthcare named him as one of four people who have most Goodman influenced the modern health care system. He is also the Kellye Wright Fellow in health care. The mission of the Wright Fellowship is to promote a more patient-centered, consumer-driven health care system. Mr. Goodman is a strong advocate of free-market patient-centered health reforms. Kenneth E. Thorpe, PhD – the Robert W. Woodruff Professor and Chair of the Department of Health Policy & Management at Emory University’s Rollins School of Public Health, also serving as the executive director of Emory’s Institute of Advanced Policy Solutions (IAPS) and director of the Institute’s Center for Entitlement Reform — is a nationally known expert on foreign systems of healthcare and strong advocate of federal health reforms.

Thorpe

These two policy influencers have had enormous political influence on their respective sides of the aisle. Dr. Goodman has been a key thought leader for free market solutions and Dr. Thorpe worked in the Clinton administration on “HillaryCare,” has been an advisor to Congress, and has been a key resource to most every Democratic presidential nominee during the last 20 years. The policy differences between these two heavy weights have been debated in the halls of Congress, national media, and industry journals. They have never squared off in public on the same platform. Come hear these two great minds face off on key debate points such as: • the future of healthcare as they see it • the role of government (states and federal) in implementing improvement / change • the use of the tax code to force change

Day Two: Opening: An Outstanding Panel of Leading Physicians discuss “Healthcare Consumerism: the Solution for Health Reform” Thursday, May 8th, 2014 • 9:00 a.m. – 10:30 a.m. Health care consumerism is gaining wide-spread acceptance; but that is only half the battle towards our quest for Health Reform. The other half — promoting and achieving healthcare freedom — the absence of government dictums as individuals pursue personal healthcare preferences. In this session, learn about the ways leading physicians are promoting and achieving change in our healthcare system, where there is more work to do, and how you can personally get involved. Hear from concerned physicians committed to the establishment of a health care system that preserves the sanctity of the doctor-patient relationship, promotes quality of care, supports affordable access to all Americans, and protects patients’ freedom of choice. Hear the latest from top physicians about innovative approaches 1) to enhance patient-provider relationships, 2) to reduce employer expense for health benefit management for their employees, 3) to engage employees in practices that lead to better decision making regarding their health and the selection of safe, appropriately-priced services, procedures and hospitals, and more. And learn how patients and physicians alike can get involved in order to preserve the good qualities of our healthcare system, address the problems, while preventing its bureaucratic destruction.

Day Two: Closing: Defined Contribution and Public/Private Exchanges: a Panel Discussion with Leading Experts The health care law has changed the way brokers solicit health insurance and how employers provide health insurance to their employee population. The emergence of public and private exchanges and the concept of defined contribution, which encourages the philosophy of consumerism, is becoming a game-changer. Exchanges are meant to increase accessibility to affordable health care. Yet, employers and brokers need to examine how the different exchange models, whether private or public, best fit within the health benefit management strategies of the employer or brokers and consultants who are trying to remain relevant in an ever-changing, dynamic world of health insurance.

The emergence of private health insurance exchanges represents perhaps the most significant shift in how Americans purchase health benefits in years. While many employers have already moved their employee population into a private exchange, or are planning to in the 2014 benefits year, the trend will continue to grow with the 2015 benefit year seeing the highest adoption rates, according to recent research published by Alegeus Technologies.

Stakeholders across healthcare agree that increased transparency and consumer engagement are required to move the needle on cost and quality. But there’s not a simple solution or “one-size-fits-all” approach for effectively engaging consumers. Join Truven Health Analytics as we share real-life examples of how our employer and health plan clients have turned passive participants into active healthcare consumers. The speakers will highlight innovative strategies to guide individuals to their best-fit plan, alert them about gaps-in-care, help them plan for out-of-pocket expenses before undergoing treatment, and more. You’ll also learn how to improve outcomes and lower costs by engaging consumers in the critical issues affecting their care through proactive, year-round engagement.

102 – The Future of Private Insurance Exchanges: How Deeper Service Offerings and Technology Change the Consumer Experience As private insurance exchanges continue to evolve, it becomes clear that true market differentiation lies in an exchange’s ability to broaden its service offerings — going beyond traditional benefit packages by adding other supplemental, non-traditional benefits. How does this concept, in addition to what we know about behavioral change and financial incentives, play into the future of insurance exchanges? Terry McCorvie, President of Alegeus WealthCare Marketplace Solutions, addresses these questions and offers insight into how private insurance exchanges will grow and evolve as their popularity increases. McCorvie

During this session, McCorvie illustrates how insurance exchanges, when integrated with other core benefits delivery systems, can dramatically change participant behavior and consumption trends — helping participants make educated, financially-advantageous decisions.

104 – Session for Brokers: Defined Contribution – The CDHC Trifecta A “Defined Contribution” payment methodology can have a dramatic impact on Consumer Driven Health Care (CDHC) marketing, and the future of healthcare consumerism. The cost control benefit has long been understood. However, the employees’ recognition of the “cost-shifting” has limited widespread utilization of this mechanism. New creative plan design strategies can now give employees a “trade-off” for accepting the greater financial responsibility imposed. Enhanced through the use of “flex credits” and other creative design options, defined contribution can be the perfect “Trifecta”- benefiting the Employer, the Employee and the Broker. • • •

The Employer controls costs, and often saves money in benefits they provide to their employees. The Employee engages more in his/her own benefits plan, because of better flexibility in the utilization of employer contributions which empowers them to tailor benefits to their individual needs. The Broker can more effectively “leverage” tax savings and current employer contributions into higher participation in employer sponsored benefits, expansion into ancillary and voluntary products, and thus new revenue streams.

Defined Contribution is critical to being competitive in marketing CDHC programs and, when used innovatively, can be a true differentiator for the Broker. At the end of the session, attendees will have gained the following takeaways: • • •

Why development of an employer/employee partnership is critical to your success. Why employee education is required to properly utilize their benefits. Why defined contribution strategies are essential to the successful implementation of healthcare consumerism. Moderator: Jodie E. Braner, RHU, Vice President, Employee Benefits Consulting, Hays Companies of Georgia, and President Elect for GAHU (Georgia Associations of Health Underwriters) Speaker: Don Cooper, MBA, ACBC – President, TriFlex Corporation

The panel will examine numerous current challenges, such as: • • • • • • • •

What is the VALUE of your Benefits outside of the Medical Plans to your organization? How to mitigate risk for an employee using voluntary benefits to fill in the gaps we will see in high deductible plans or the Silver or Bronze plans on the Exchanges. How employers are saving money by utilizing employer paid hospital indemnity and critical illness to move to an HSA Plan. What are the short term and long term risks of moving to an HSA Plan and how can you prepare? Are there differences between benefit administration and private exchanges? How you can deploy a successful strategy when migrating employees to a private exchange? The success of wellness is predicated on engagement and changing the culture of the organization. How can you deploy a successful program? How does Voluntary Benefits control healthcare costs?

107 – Panel Discussion on Retail Health Clinics: Case Studies and Trends in Accessible, Affordable Healthcare Systems Based in Retail Locations and the Value Proposition for Employers Retail clinics are medical clinics staffed by advance practice clinicians located in high-traffic areas that offer limited services for acute illnesses, wellness and preventive care, and chronic disease care. Operating under evidence-based medical treatment guidelines, these clinics are viewed by many as the first line contact with the medical system for thousands of patients who would not otherwise receive treatment. Retail clinics are expanding in numbers and scope of services and will continue to play an increasingly important role as more Americans become insured through the Affordable Care Act with a focus on access, affordability and quality. This session will discuss an overview of retail clinics to include the high-quality care/services provided in them and the cost savings they provide, how retail clinics are different from other healthcare settings and the benefits of and opportunities to partner with employers. At the end of the session, attendees will: • • •

201 – Thief in the Night: How to Stop Sleep Apnea from Robbing Your Company While You Sleep Employers continue to spend an inordinate amount of their healthcare dollars on a small percentage of their employees who suffer from Obstructive Sleep Apnea (OSA), and the many co-morbid diseases associated with OSA. Learn how you can cut these costs dramatically and stop being robbed of financial resources and human capital while your employees with OSA sleep. The highest prevalence of undiagnosed OSA dramatically increases the cost of healthcare, reduces productivity and jeoardizes workplace safety. Dr. Jeffrey Durmer will share with us the truth behind unhealthy sleep — and more surprisingly how the negative effects of unmanaged OSA can be mitigated so that your company does not become another victim of the night. This session will provide the attendee with three sound takeaways: • • •

205 – Somewhere Between Action and Apathy: Introducing the ACE Measure of Consumer Health Engagement How do people decide what role to play in their health and health care? Are there specific actions that determine if someone is sufficiently, or optimally, involved in his care? Who decides what those specific actions are? While promoting engagement has become a popular goal in corporate health, the industry lacks a collective understanding of what that means. In some cases, we equate engagement with a specific action or event. In others, we translate it to a set of perceptions that correlate with health behaviors or outcomes. Yet, two people who take great interest (e.g. highly engaged) in the same health care decision may make drastically different choices. Further complicating matters, different stakeholders in the health industry view engagement quite differently. So, who decides what “good” engagement looks like? In this session, Chris Duke, PhD will present insights from a new measure of consumer engagement (the Altarum Consumer Engagement measure – ACE). The measure was developed with the support of Safeway and is available to organizations interested in assessing and promoting specific aspects of engagement. Four dimensions of engagement will be explored: commitment, informed choice, navigation, and ownership. Sheila Viswanathan, EdD, RD will describe how the instrument has been applied with employees at Safeway. Duke

208 – Panel Discussion on Health Care Transparency: The Facts are Obligatory! Health care transparency means providing consumers with the reliable cost and quality information necessary to choose health care providers based on value. Reliable information empowers consumer choice; Consumer choice creates competition and incentives at all levels; Competition motivates the entire system to provide better care for less money. Whether directed at employers, consumers or providers – the facts are in and they are awe-inspiring: • • • • • • •

64% of workers have health plans with a deductible of $1000 or more 53% of consumers are oblivious to costs and tend to go along with what is suggested Consumers’ out-of-pocket spending on health care, estimated at $329 billion in 2013, is projected to rise to $411 billion in 2020—a 25 percent increase. Since 2000, rising prices of hospital charges, professional services, drugs, devices and administrative costs are responsible for 91 percent of the increases in health spending. In 2012, nearly one of five U.S. adults was contacted by a collection agency over unpaid medical bills. Preventable, adverse events in hospitals are now the nation’s third leading cause of death annually. $300 billion is wasted in the U.S. every year in avoidable health care costs.

As a result, those involved in America’s health system are embracing Consumerism and Transparency ………And by doing so, we are creating a powerful force for change. Come hear from leading Employers on what they are doing and SHARE your thoughts on healthcare cost and quality transparency!

307 – Pharmacy Benefit Management: The Value to Employees and Consumers Can Be Significant The transition is nearly complete — prescription drugs that use to be insignificant in cost and paid for straight from the patient’s own pocket are now paid for by third parties, almost exclusively. The reason — Rx accounts for more than 20% of total health care costs, and is rising. With the almost simultaneous transition to an age of healthcare consumerism, employees / consumers are now responsible for at least a portion of this expense and they are now exposed to a rising personal expense. Pharmacy Benefit Managers, or PBMs, act as intermediaries between payors, usually insurance companies or large corporations, and everyone else in the health care system. They generally make money through service fees from large customer contracts for processing claims for prescriptions, operating mail-order pharmacies, and negotiating discounts and rebates with pharmacies and drug makers. Until recently, the value of PBMs has been to help their larger clients 1) control and cut pharmacy costs and 2) increase the efficiency of operations, including claims processing and reimbursement management. PBMs have evolved from processing prescriptions at pharmacies to taking over the entire drug benefit portion of health plans. Today approaching 90% of all Americans get their pharmacy benefits through a PBM. As part of their evolution, the larger PBMs are moving beyond being just administrators and are working to offer new services, such as utilization and disease management, to help clients’ employees manage spending.

308 – Panel Discussion on Medical Travel: ALL ABOARD! U.S. Centers of Excellence Banking on Employer and Payer Uptake of Domestic Medical Travel Benefits The fast-growth phenomenon of US domestic medical travel — inter-state to Centers of Excellence (COEs) throughout the country, inbound to the U.S., and outbound to destinations worldwide — is capturing the attention of employers, payers, third party administrators, insurance companies and other intermediaries throughout the world. With the growth of HSAs as well as self-funding, a domestic medical travel benefit is now gaining traction among small, medium and large employer groups. The United States is now one of the top three destinations worldwide for medical travel, and receives as many as 800,000 international patients seeking help with the most difficult health conditions. As a result, and in the new era of health reforms, Americans are witnessing: • • • •

Rapid adoption of domestic medical tourism: travel to another state or region within US borders Employer receptivity to introducing a medical travel benefit Consumer willingness to travel to other parts of the United States to access quality care with improved outcomes Increased demand for more cost-effective care that meets budget requirements

There is growing interest among US hospitals, providers and Centers of Excellence to attract foreign patients. Physician-owned ambulatory surgery centers are participating in this growth trend, as well. International patients are often cash-paying customers and emanate from countries where there are significant financial resources but limited healthcare infrastructure or access to quality diagnostics or care. This session will examine the top volume procedures for medical travel, track the growth of the industry, evaluate the positioning of provider organizations and COEs, and review initiatives by some of the nation’s largest employers to introduce domestic medical travel programs. With the implementation of healthcare exchanges, and amid mounting challenges for balancing quality and cost-savings, this discussion will help conference attendees to evaluate their participation in a medical travel program.

402 – Creating Engaged Healthcare Consumers Transparency – providing consumers with information on cost and quality of care to lower healthcare costs – has moved from a concept to a mainstream benefit offering. However, current transparency tools depend on a flawed assumption, a model that we call the “engaged shopping” paradigm. Engagement is assumed, sometimes even an afterthought – why would consumers not choose a less expensive provider? But low engagement is a hallmark of rising healthcare costs and studies keep showing that cost is not a top driver of provider choices. This session focuses on data innovation and design factors that move transparency tools from sterile information to must-use personal aids powering consumer decisions, which result in better health care choices and behavior trends. Participants will: • • •

Learn how a design centric and behavioral health focus for transparency can drive better healthcare choices and improved access to care. Learn how to increase high performance network utilization and reduce healthcare costs using transparency data innovation and care advocate delivery. Understand why provider transparency has to be more than care shopping Speakers: Vineet Gulati, CEO, HealthExpense; Matt Dallahan, SVP, Product Strategy, Evolution1; and Bart Bracken, Executive Vice-President, HMC HealthWorks

403 – Designing Price and Quality Transparency for Maximum Engagement and Results Consumer-driven health care has been around for years, but consumers have lacked the ability to act as rationale buyers. Price and quality transparency has emerged to fill this void and truly empower health care consumers. If you build it, will they come? That depends on how you recognize and incorporate some key principles of behavior change. Learn how effective transparency service design, integration and incentives can make the difference between just another benefit offering and an engine that drives cost savings and plan satisfaction. The key attributes of transparency design and implementation that will be explored include: • • •

Simple – How to minimize confusion and frustration for health care consumers. Measureable – How transparency can pay off for employees and employers. Engaging – The keys to transparency engagement: registration… utilization… behavior change! Speakers: Mark Agnew, Chief Marketing Officer, ClearCost Health, and James Kobar, Benefits Manager, Avaya

405 – Learn the Barry-Wehmiller approach to “Organizational Leadership and Inspiring Employee Wellbeing” As corporate wellness programs have become a healthcare consumerism strategy more employers are providing programs, incentives, etc. for their employees. Best practices, program design, methods of evaluation are all questions sought after in developing an effective wellness offering. And then, with everything in place, engagement still may be lower than desired. How do we engage in a daily practice of healthful living? In this session, learn Barry-Wehmiller’s approach – where wellbeing initiatives are designed for inspiring healthful living. At the end of the session, attendees will: • • •

406 – New Research Results: Applying Value-Based Insurance Design to High-Deductible Health Plans Learn about the results of new research that provides insights into whether high deductible health plans (HDHPs) can be tailored so that chronically-ill individuals embrace these plans and save money. Even though more employers are adjusting their benefit offerings to include HDHPs, chronically-ill individuals are reluctant to enroll in these plans given their higher expected out-of-pocket expense even when an HSA or HRA is attached and partially funded by their employer. The research developed and priced hypothetical HDHPs that incorporate “value-based insurance design” principles to make such plans more attractive to chronically-ill individuals by reducing cost-sharing for more effective “high-value” services and providers while discouraging the use of low-value services and providers. For example, modifying a high deductible plan to lower the patient’s out-of-pocket cost for clinically recommended diabetes treatment services has the potential to reduce health complications and overall spending. Maintaining the deductible structure for medical goods and services not affiliated with diabetes management will continue to motivate employees and their families to research and seek high-quality, necessary care. The study was conducted by leading academics at Harvard Medical School and the University of Michigan Center for Value-Based Insurance Design and was sponsored by the Gary and Mary West Health Policy Center.

407 – Panel Discussion on Defined Contribution / Private Exchanges: Leading Experts Discuss the Models, the Current Experiences and What is Coming for 2015, including Updates on Public Exchanges Long before Health Reform as we know it today had been even considered, the shift to consumerism in health, healthcare and health insurance had begun. The health industry in the U.S. is today at the point of a major transition from an employer-driven payor model to an employee-driven consumer model due almost entirely to the meteoric rise in healthcare costs and the resulting strain on employer affordability of the benefit. Very similar to the shift from pension plans to individual retirement accounts years ago, employers are limiting health benefits to what they can afford by switching from defined benefits inside of health plans that they controlled to defined cash contributions they make to healthcare savings accounts that their employees control. The employee then makes the health insurance purchasing decisions, not the employer. Yet with the health reform law also a consideration during this time of transition, employers want to not only control costs but remain compliant with federal mandates while still providing their employees good options to acquire value based insurance products. Therefore, private health insurance exchanges, with their defined contribution approaches, represent a significant component of the next generation of solutions, directly involving more and more individual consumers.

408 – Employer Panel Discussion: Building Better Consumers of Health Care and Health Your employees are not children. They want to be treated like adults and make their own decisions regarding their health and health care. However, if they do not have the proper education and decision-support tools they may not be able to make the best choices when it comes to getting care. In this SHARE SESSION, employers will discuss some very innovative ways to create more educated consumers of health care. Employers will discuss health management pathways, advocacy resources and enrollment engagement services that have a proven track record within their organizations. As employees interact with healthcare in different ways, you must deploy different “just in time” strategies to educate and engage them on their own terms. Three things you will learn from this session are: • • •

Successful engagement of employees during enrollment. Employee engagement once health conditions are identified. Advocacy and its role in health care decision making.

Active interaction between the panelists and attendees is encouraged! Bring your questions.
