TCOM CONFERENCE SPOTLIGHT!

ARE YOU READY FOR THE 2023 TCOM CONFERENCE?

We are super excited about this year's?#TCOM?Conference, “Lex Go! Pop Health”, and as we get closer, we want to spotlight some of the exciting presentations we have planned for you. Here is another one you do not want to miss!

Supervising with Data – An interactive workshop

When your system is scoring #CANS or #ANSA, supervisors are given unprecedented tools to make their job easier. Learn how to monitor high-risk clients, appropriately balance caseloads, and make a supervisor a “communication facilitator.” Participants will get the chance to practice using interactive online reports and role-play in small groups.

Learning objectives?

• Describe the role of data in person-centered supervision
• Interpret #communimetric reports in a collaborative manner.
• Monitor caseload progress for individual clinicians.
• Balance worker caseloads based on caseload intensity
• Coach frontline staff on accessing their clinical insights through recourse to data

Keeping families together: An evidence-based approach to value-based purchasing

A behavioral health carve-out managed care organization implemented a value-based program (VBP), including case rates and incentive payments for meeting certain targets. The targets included administrative criteria, as well as success on an analytically derived CANS profile. The program was successful even through the stresses of the COVID-19 crisis on the behavioral health system. This presentation will discuss the project, as well as the advanced analytic approaches taken with #CANS data, in order to properly incentivize towards outcomes. The project also further validates the use of the #CANS in #VBP since CANS improvement correlated significantly with reduced out-of-home placements.

** Note: This whole project was approached scientifically, with hypotheses at the project’s inception. It is being written up and submitted to a peer-reviewed journal and may already be at the publication stage during the conference.?

Learning objectives?

• Outline the steps necessary for successful value-based purchasing arrangements in behavioral health.
• Apply communimetric principles to outcomes analyses in VBP.
• Assess the success of a VBP initiative with recourse to TCOM and administrative data.
• Articulate the importance of evidence-based approaches to VBP
