Agenda - Rush Health Associates' Employer Symposium
Rush Health Associate's Second Annual Employer Symposium April 20, 2005
Missed the Symposium? Take a look at what was discussed, or view the agenda.
Successful disease management programs rely on physicians who practice evidence based medicine, patients who comply with treatment guidelines, and sophisticated systems for tracking and reporting outcomes. But do current disease management programs by-pass physicians? How can physicians better manage patients with chronic conditions? And why aren’t patients doing more?
Rush Health Associates’ Second Annual Employer Symposium brought together employers, health plan leadership, and providers to answer these questions and collaboratively explore ways to maximize disease management outcomes.
