Jim Moore to Moderate Panel on Acute Care and Post-Acute Care Integration

MDS would like to announce that Jim Moore, President Moore Diversified Services, Inc.  will be moderating/speaking at an upcoming Senior Living Business Interactive webcast, Acute Care and Post-Acute Care Integration: What Does It Mean For You?  It takes place on February 7 at 1:00 PM ET, hosted by Irving Levin Associates. 

Effective January 3, 2013, the Affordable Care Act requires doctors, hospitals and other health care providers – including long-term care facilities – to coordinate care provided to Medicare patients through Accountable Care Organizations (ACOs). In return, incentives reward ACOs based on lowering the cost of providing health care services and meeting benchmark levels for quality care. Our expert panelists will share their advice on how post-acute care specialists can best integrate with acute-care providers.

This expert panel will be addressing topics such as:

  • The opportunity for providers as the nation moves towards a managed-care model.
  • The readiness/willingness of hospitals to participate in ACOs.
  • The likelihood that these new business relationships will enhance revenue and occupancy.
  • The risks or challenges of participation in an ACO.

They will also share their advice on how post-acute care specialists should position themselves to partner with acute-care providers.
