The Carrot or the Stick? The Challenges, Questions and Unintended Consequences of Digital/M-Health

Federal Government Affinity Group

There is a tremendous amount of change in healthcare today—a true shift which enables patient engagement to leverage some aspects of their healthcare using technology. So, what works better in healthcare, the carrot (voluntary patient participation in M-Health solutions to reduce costs) or the stick (required participation in M-health solutions or pay a fine)?

A panel of experts will discuss the challenges of developing a patient-centric technology strategy that works for everyone, the possible positive impact on healthcare outcomes and patient satisfaction as well as managing the unintended consequences and responses of insurers.

Panelists:
Michael O’Neil – GetWellNetwork
Anish Sebastian – 1EQ
Beth Maloney – Palladian Partners
David Blackburn – Sapient
Allan Acton – HealthStream
Mark Scrimshire - HealthCamp

Refreshments from Bittersweet Catering will be served.
