Understand the Landscape

The health care landscape is changing; community-based organizations (CBOs) must change with it. Understanding the Landscape provides information on health care industry trends and priorities.

Topic areas covered include:

Federal and state policy trends (Medicare, Medicaid, VA, etc.).
Health care system priorities.
Opportunities in Integrated Care (Accountable Care Organizations, patient-centered medical homes, etc.).

Health plans and product lines (Medicare Advantage, commercial, duals plans, etc.)
Long-term services and supports (LTSS) trends.
