Navigating Low-Value Care: A Roadmap for Stakeholders
Register now for a webinar examining low-value care and a roadmap to guide health care stakeholders as they consider this challenge.
Paying for treatments or services that don't offer real value for patients is a pervasive problem in the United States, with as much as $340 billion being spent on low-value or unnecessary care alone. With health care spending projected to reach nearly 20% of GDP in the next decade, eliminating low-value care and the associated costs to our health care system is becoming increasingly critical.
Building upon previous efforts aimed at reducing low-value care, partners of the Going Below The Surface Forum (GBTS) have developed a roadmap to guide health care stakeholders as they consider and implement low-value care interventions. This first of a series of webinars on the topic will assist in defining and understanding low-value care and its importance to various stakeholders.
Speakers include:
- Jennifer Perloff, MPA, PhD, Scientist and Deputy Director, Institute for Healthcare Systems, Brandeis University
- Lisa Simpson, MB, BCh, MPH., FAAP, President and CEO - AcademyHealth
- Corinna Sorenson, PhD, Assistant Professor - Duke University School of Medicine
- Robert W. Dubois, MD, PhD, Chief Science Officer & Executive Vice President, National Pharmaceutical Council (Moderator)
AcademyHealth and the National Pharmaceutical Council are proud to co-host this event as partners in Going Below The Surface, the sponsor of this series.
