Topic:
Health plans and their health tech partners are facing three major priorities at once:

- Meeting compliance requirements under CMS-0057
- Responding to the new CMS and payer pledge to reduce prior authorization burdens across government and commercial plans
- Advancing their own interoperability roadmaps to improve provider collaboration, operational efficiency, and member experience

Too often, these efforts are managed in silos. This webinar explores how health plans can connect the dots, leveraging investments made for CMS-0057 compliance to also support the industry’s prior authorization commitments and accelerate broader strategic goals.

In this episode of The Dish on Health IT, Tony Schueth and Rob Dribbon are joined by Neikisha Charles Director of Quality Improvement and Risk Management of Bedford Stuyvesant Family Health Center (Bed-Stuy), a federally qualified health center (FQHC) in Brooklyn, NY. Together, they dig into common misconceptions about FQHCs and shine a spotlight on the opportunities they present for strategic engagement across the healthcare ecosystem—especially for health IT and life sciences organizations.

In this episode of The Dish on Health IT, host Tony Schueth sits down with two of the industry's sharpest minds leading the charge to fix one of health IT’s most persistent headaches: digital consent management.

In this episode of The Dish on Health IT, host Tony Schueth and payer interoperability expert Kendra Obrist sit down with Rob Alger, SVP of Health Plan Technology at Kaiser Permanente, for a candid and sweeping conversation about payer interoperability, AI, FHIR, and the realities of health IT innovation at scale.
