Gettysburg, PA, July 18, 2018 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- OPEN MINDS recently announced the details of their most recent executive seminar, Is Your Organization Managed Care Ready? An OPEN MINDS Executive Seminar On Provider Organization Planning & Positioning For Success. The seminar will be held on August 14, 2018, at the Hilton Long Beach Hotel in Long Beach, California. The seminar will be led by OPEN MINDS Senior Associate, Richard Louis, III, who will discuss essential best management practices and the internal departmental supports necessary to succeed in a high volume and outcomes driven managed care environment.
“More and more community mental and social service organizations are finding it necessary to diversify their payer mix and embracing local contract opportunities to serve health plan and managed care members,” says Mr. Louis. “Knowing your organizations ability to operationally meet payer expectations in a managed care environment is critical to sustaining fiscally viable treatment and coordinated care services that produce meaningful outcomes and long-term client resiliency in outpatient settings.”
In this seminar, attendees will discuss:
- Core themes related to customer centric intake and admission processes to ensure maximum client visits and reduce “no show rates”
- Development of winning marketing strategies and account management to drive and maintain maximum referral volume
- Customer focused care coordination for effective continued stay reviews, treatment updates and discharge planning
