Managed Healthcare Industry Forum Presents:

How Health Plans Can Survive Reform

Monday, June 28, 2010 • New York City

There's no way to sugar-coat this.

Yes, comprehensive healthcare legislation signed into law by President Obama will bring millions of new members to managed care plans. But the law will negatively impact profit margins – especially health plans with large exposure to the individual, small group, Medicare and possibly even Medicaid markets.

The argument during the reform debate that somehow this legislation would bring windfall profits to health plans is just silly. Now health plans must figure out how to survive in this post-reform world.

To win in the marketplace, plans must...

Develop innovative products and services that deliver on the original promise of managed care, i.e., higher quality care at a lower cost.

Develop decision support tools that help members better manage their health and make informed buying decisions.

Engage members in a variety of prevention, wellness, disease management and care management programs.
