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 />
