About this event

This year’s summit focuses on current issues in healthcare delivery that have potential to increase quality of care, decrease cost, consumerize healthcare (empower patients), and leverage current market and technology trends. Emphasis is on topics relevant to current or pending legislation, and include:

  • Direct primary care (DPC)
  • The role of insurance in a DPC world
  • Hospital price transparency, competition and costs; regulations; lawsuits; the RAND study
  • Medicare and Medicaid policy: connections to direct pay, HSAs, and market-driven healthcare
  • Drug costs; PBMs; Brown & white bagging
  • HealthTech: Telehealth, patient data and AI in healthcare

The format this year includes keynote presentations and panel discussions involving subject matter and policy experts with politicians from both parties. The event begins with networking and a lunch keynote. It is hoped that the summit will produce policy-relevant data, whitepapers, and model legislation.

Gloria Sachdev, President and CEO, Employers’ Forum of Indiana; SAGE hospital price comparisons
