Pre-Conference Workshops
Justice, Equity, Diversity, & Inclusion: Interrogating Our Work: Perspectives on Social Drivers of Health and Disability
Sunday, Aug. 4: 9 a.m.-12 p.m. ET
Assessment tools aimed at better understanding social factors impacting health often tend to pathologize patients as a constellation of problems that need to be “fixed.” Discuss a framework that offers a more aspirational and empowered approach to understanding and supporting patient needs and explore the medical and social models of disability.
Workforce: Pouring from a Full Cup: Organizational Well-being Planning & Implementation
Sunday, Aug. 4: 1-4 p.m. ET
Explore the intricacies of building and sustaining a workplace that prioritizes the health and vitality of its providers and staff. Discuss comprehensive organizational well-being, address key pillars such as emotional, physical, financial, and communication wellness, and learn how to develop and implement a customized Organizational Well-being Plan.
Workforce: Medical-Legal Partnerships
Sunday, Aug. 4: 1-4 p.m. ET
Presented in partnership with the National Center for Medical-Legal Partnership.
Medical-Legal Partnerships (MLPs) stand as allies in addressing the social determinants of health among Medicaid beneficiaries and providers. However, the challenge lies in sustaining their invaluable services amidst funding constraints. This workshop is tailored to empower MLP practitioners with actionable strategies and tools geared towards tapping into the potential of Medicaid to forge a sustainable path forward. Explore the landscape of coding, billing intricacies, policy nuances, and collaborative partnerships essential for navigating Medicaid reimbursement effectively. Through hands-on resources and interactive sessions, participants will glean practical insights to not only secure sustainable funding but also to expand service offerings and champion health equity initiatives within their communities. By the end of this workshop, attendees will emerge equipped with a clear vision and a robust framework for aligning Medicaid with the objectives of Medical-Legal Partnerships.
