As Medicare Advantage faces mounting pressure—from regulatory shifts to rising costs—leaders are rethinking how to design and scale effective risk arrangements. This panel explores what is working in 2025. Panelists will share how they’re using technology to improve outcomes, align incentives, and take meaningful costs out of the system—not just through incremental spend, but by targeting high-impact areas like fall prevention and home-based care.

As value-based care models mature, the focus is shifting from launching pilots to scaling performance and revenue across markets, populations, and risk arrangements. This panel will explore what it takes to grow sustainably—across Medicare Advantage, ACO REACH, specialty VBC contracts, and beyond. Topics will include aligning incentives, optimizing risk adjustment, building scalable infrastructure, and navigating today’s cost pressures and contracting realities.

Specialty care is a critical lever for advancing value-based care, but success requires tailored infrastructure, aligned incentives, and scalable models. This panel brings together leaders building risk-bearing specialty arrangements to discuss contract design, operational readiness, and data strategy. Topics will include the role of aggregators, engaging specialists in areas like MSK, GI, behavioral health, COPD, and cardiology, and how frameworks like Medicare Advantage and state-based programs are enabling growth.

As value-based care expands, organizations are inundated with data—but volume alone doesn't drive value. This panel will focus on how the use of predictive models and GenAI can align with company objectives and to translate big data into actionable insights that improve patient outcomes and financial performance. Speakers will explore the real-world challenges of validating models, aligning them with care workflows, and measuring ROI in complex clinical and operational environments. They will also explore how predictive models can solve real world business problems in better ways than simple member attribution algorithms. 

As value-based care moves from pilot to permanence, the need for durable infrastructure—policy, technology, and data systems—has never been more urgent. This panel brings together leaders from government, policy, and industry to explore how we build the scaffolding that will support a scalable, sustainable future for risk-based care models. From modernizing data infrastructure to setting interoperability standards, the conversation will focus on what it will take to make value-based care work for patients, providers, and payers alike.

As value-based care scales, aligning payers and providers through shared data, infrastructure, and trust has never been more urgent. This panel brings together experts across health plans, analytics, and care delivery to explore how data can uncover cost drivers, reduce friction, and drive smarter risk-sharing. From predictive modeling to EHR integration and actuarial strategy, panelists will discuss how technology is enabling more collaborative, transparent, and outcome-driven value-based partnerships.

The future of value-based care depends on more than just advanced analytics—it hinges on our ability to harness big data at scale. This session will examine how health systems, analytics leaders, and employers are navigating fragmented datasets, integrating emerging AI tools, and driving smarter decisions across populations and contracts. Panelists will explore what it takes to unlock the full potential of data infrastructure to support scalable, sustainable value-based models.
