The End of the Pandemic: Transitioning to a High Value System

Thursday, 6/15 at 12PM ET


WASHINGTON DC, USA -- HEALTHCARE UPDATE NEWS SERVICE™ -- JUNE 9, 2023: The COVID 19 Pandemic drew attention to major flaws in the U.S. healthcare system. From our independent spirit that made collective action difficult at times to the decades-long underfunding of our public health agencies, it was a perfect storm that had a devastating impact - especially on our most vulnerable populations. Now, with a premature end to the public health emergency, we risk further harm to the millions of patients and their caregivers still suffering from the effects of COVID. And we also risk stifling the few bright lights that emerged from a crashed system beginning to self-correct.

SESSION OBJECTIVES:
  1. Review the major flaws of the U.S. healthcare system exposed by the Pandemic

  2. Explore the ways in which the healthcare system is self-correcting

  3. Discuss how ending Medicaid coverage for many will inhibit the transition to a high value system (i.e., a system that consistently provides high value care)

  4. Discuss how certain elements catalyzed by the pandemic have fared in the last 18 months.
