SUMMARY:What’s Next for I/DD Service Delivery and Payment Models - National Assn of QIDPS
DESCRIPTION:REGISTER NOW! \nSession Description: This session will provide an overview of efforts to prepare I/DD agencies to understand and adapt to a landscape that includes non-state payers and is outside of the traditional fee for service (FFS) reimbursement model. States are increasingly looking to alternate payment and management structures for HCBS services\, including I/DD services. I/DD service providers are often unfamiliar with the culture\, values\, language and expectations of non-state payers. Even while state systems remain in a FFS structure for I/DD services\, agencies need to be actively engaged in learning about essential competencies that will be necessary to continue to provide their mission-based services in a new landscape and taking steps to prepare their organizations to continue to grow and thrive. This session will share strategies for shifting I/DD agency attitudes from resistance to new payer models to seeking to become informed and educated about them so that they can be as impactful and influential as possible in shaping the future of their state’s I/DD system.  We’ll discuss how recent societal trends have impacted I/DD service delivery and what possible long term effects may shape the future for I/DD organizations. \nKey Themes \n\nEmerging payer\, service and business models in the I/DD system\nReadying I/DD provider organizations to survive and thrive in alternate payer systems\nThe impact of COVID19 on I/DD organizations\, service delivery and plans for the future\n\nSpeaker Bio:  Kathy Carmody is the CEO of the Institute on Public Policy for People with Disabilities\, Illinois’ largest association exclusively devoted to I/DD community provider organizations.
