LTQA Summit Invitation
Please join National Alliance for Caregiving and many other caregiving and aging organizations at the Long-Term Quality Alliance (LTQA) Summit in Boston, MA on November 2nd, in conjunction with the LeadingAge Annual Meeting. The Summit will feature fresh thinking from LTSS pioneers on providing and paying for person-centered, quality, integrated LTSS.
Attendees can register for the LTQA Summit alone for a special one-day rate. Start the day with a moving Keynote by Dr. Atul Gawande, author of Being Mortal, who will reveal, through the experiences of people with complex care needs, insights on care decisions that respect each individual's desire for autonomy and choice.
Join LTQA for lunch and a stimulating afternoon program tying Dr. Gawande's message to the work of LTSS pioneers and their pathways for LTSS Innovation.
Hear Ari Ne'eman, an inspiring leader on disability self-advocacy, challenge us to empower the "Dignity of Risk" and develop the LTSS business models that enable it.
Engage in a dialogue with Jennifer Ho from HUD, Dr. Julian Harris from Harvard, and Larry Gumina, from Ohio Presbyterian Retirement Services as they suggest innovative ways to direct LTSS integration to address the social determinants of health for diverse populations.
Participate with Melanie Bella, formerly at CMS, and leaders from pioneering LTSS integration models in discussing payment approaches for integrated plans that enable flexibility in addressing the whole person.
Learn from Alice Bonner, MA Elder Affairs Secretary, and leaders from pioneering plans about the challenges and new developments in directing integrated LTSS to outcomes that matter to the individual.
Don't miss this opportunity to join with colleagues in this engaging discussion on the edge of LTSS integration and innovation. Information on the special one-day LTQA Summit fee & how to register is available here.
