C4 Top 3 Things You Should Know about<br />

How Behavioral Health Will Be Paid For in<br />

the Future<br />

Room: Milano 2<br />

Come January 2014, we anticipate a lot of changes in our<br />

healthcare system. We’ve talked about these changes for<br />

a while ― the Medicaid expansion, health insurance exchanges,<br />

new employer requirements. But we must think<br />

about how these changes will affect payment for behavioral<br />

health services. We are seeing the emergence of<br />

unique service delivery models and outcomes-based payment<br />

structures. How do you take advantage of these opportunities?<br />

Learn the most important changes shaping<br />

future behavioral health payment and ways to position<br />

yourself in the changing landscape.<br />

and life status, as well as heed the challenges and<br />

C6 EBPs in Practice: Lessons on Starting<br />

and Sticking with a New Practice Tool<br />

Milano 4<br />

Leading clinical and quality initiatives require perseverance,<br />

if positive changes are to occur. Evidence-based<br />

practices can only thrive if we sustain the gains learned<br />

during implementation. Learn the methods used by behavioral<br />

health collaborations that tried small tests of<br />

change to embed practice tools, resulting in systematic<br />

and reliable components of care.<br />
