San Diego County Supervisor Dave Roberts Joins Fellow Healthcare Experts at HFMA Forum

Nationally known healthcare executive, educator, thought leader and consultant John M. "Jay" Shiver, MHA, LFACHE, FAAMA, will keynote the "Innovative Strategies for Successful Population Health Management" forum June 16 at AMN Healthcare.

Hosted by the San Diego-Imperial Chapter of the Healthcare Financial Management Association-in concert with Health Care Communicators of San Diego, HIMSS Southern California and the San Diego Organization of Healthcare Leaders-the forum is designed to help healthcare finance executives navigate rough value-based reimbursement waters ahead.

San Diego County Supervisor Dave Roberts-health policy advisor to two presidents-will give the opening remarks. Currently vice chair of the Board of Supervisors, the former SAIC (News - Alert) and HIMSS executive helps evaluate healthcare delivery financing and other issues as a National Association of Counties' Health Steering Committee member.

"This forum can help members better understand the value-based reimbursement landscape and foster collaboration with our colleagues at HCC, HIMSS and SOHL," notes HFMA chapter president Julie Haluska.

"Business as usual just won't work anymore," adds Shiver. "The new value-based paradigm compels healthcare organizations to explore alternative strategies for managing the health of populations for whom they now bear fiscal responsibility, especially the elderly and those with chronic illness or dementia." A professor of health administration and policy at George Mason University (Fairfax, Va.), Shiver is CEO of Capital Health Advisors, co-author of Managing Integrated Health Systems: A Guide for Health Executives, and has served as faculty for the American College of Healthcare Executives.
