Webinars

Join us for a 60-minute virtual discussion on the future of the U.S. health care safety net. Sponsored by Arnold Ventures, this virtual discussion will bring together national thought leaders, policymakers, payers, and providers. The session will include a review of emerging evidence followed by a moderated discussion on key pressures—including changes to Medicaid eligibility, inpatient and outpatient financing, and other challenges—as well as promising strategies and policy opportunities that could strengthen the safety net moving forward. 

To ensure health care providers are paid fairly based on patient health status and to encourage providers to care for all patients regardless of healthcare needs, risk adjustment methodology has been used to account for differences in the characteristics of patients. However, current risk adjustment methodology has significant and well-recognized limitations.
