Remember the days when you visited the doctor when sick, picked up your medication at the local pharmacy, and had few out-of-pocket expenses?

Today, we’re self-diagnosing via online tools, tracking our heart rates and steps, and using message portals to contact clinician. In short, we’re engaging more and the healthcare industry increasingly wants consumers to:

• Understand costs & choose the right source of care;
• Monitor physical activity & diet;
• Utilize self-service tools; and
• Engage with a care manager at their provider or health plan.

How is this reality shaping the healthcare industry? Key questions we’ll explore in this panel discussion:

• How are payers & providers shifting practices to engage consumers?
• What consumer needs are start-ups fulfilling?
• How are employers supporting consumers?
• What role does government play in supporting increased consumer engagement?

We have another exciting fall forum planned!  Join us for a buffet dinner, two educational breakout sessions (running concurrently) and a chance to network.

Breakout sessions will be:

(1) The Power of Connection & Communication. The Power of You.
