ACHE F2F Panel – Improving the Health Status of Your Community, Jan. 27, 9-10:30 AM
Healthcare organizations exist to serve the communities in which they reside. Though community health has always been a focus for these organizations, new regulations require them to take an active role. The health of a community or geographic population has a critical impact on a healthcare organization’s planning, operations, financial sustainability, outcomes and success.

ACHE F2F Panel – Strategies to Create Meaningful Executive Alignment with Physicians and Organizational Financial Goals, Jan. 27, 10:45 a.m.-12:15 PM
To truly transform the delivery of healthcare, the alignment and integration of executive and physician goals should be developed to create economic incentives to achieve clinical care transformations, which require behavioral and cultural changes in the delivery systems. Future success for health systems will likely depend on physicians not only successfully adapting to evolving healthcare regulatory and practice requirements, but also learning how to succeed in a world of new reimbursement models.

Moderator: David Barber, FACHE, Chief Network Development Officer of North Mississippi Health Services/President of North Mississippi Medical Center Clinics
Panelists:
– John O’Keefe, MBA, FACHE, Chief Executive Officer, Select Specialty Hospital-Gulf Coast
