The Problem
Soaring Cost of Healthcare• The US spends 16% of it’s GDP on healthcare –
nearly double all other countries– Schoolhouse Rock! Tyrannosaurus Debt
• New York spent nearly double the national average per recipient
• Not reflected in quality – ranked 50th in hospitalizations
• Unless spending is contained, the New York Medicaid Program will no longer be sustainable

•Fee for Service Credit Card–Medicaid and traditional Medicare–Patient uses any provider–Care not coordinated, duplicative services
•Managed Care Gift Card–Costs are predictable–Services and specialists are coordinated
based on comprehensive plan of care
The Problem

The Solution
• Medicaid Redesign• Care Management for All• Managed Care with Capitated Reimbursement
• New Funding Opportunities to promote innovative programs, reduced hospitalizations, and quality care at lower costs – DSRIP, NHQP, VAP
• Providers of all types need to “collaborate” and strategically plan for their survival.
