FEATURED SESSIONS SESSION 5 Keys to Succeeding in the Medicare Advantage Market Two key areas where Medicare Advantage plans must focus in order to be successful are STAR Ratings and risk scores. The financial implications of low risk scores due to insufficient coding or low STAR ratings can make a plan uncompetitive. This session will highlight some key areas in which Medicare Advantage plans can ensure they are capturing all appropriate diagnoses for risk scores and identify ways to ensure plans can identify potential STAR rating deficiencies to take action in a timely manner. SESSION 12 Latest on the ACA: From the Industry, Congress and the Supreme Court Experts at this session will present the latest information on the ACA, including 2015 enrollment, pending legislation from the 114th Congress and the potential impact of the Supreme Court decision regarding subsidies in states with federally facilitated exchanges. A panel of experts will discuss the current environment and offer insights on future developments. SESSION 88 Pandemic Modeling: Assessing Systemic Risks As the recent outbreak of Ebola heightened attention to the risk pandemics pose, continued threats of the global flu pandemic and SARS, along with the possible resurgence of both tuberculosis and polio, the need exists to further assess the full-spectrum of risks and how they affect public health systems. This session will also focus on whether or not the existing pandemic models held up under the Ebola outbreak, where breakdowns occurred and other key learnings.
