Seminar Series
Health Plans and Our Legal Obligations
March 23, 2010
Burbank Marriott Hotel & Convention Center
Although managing medical care is the primary responsibility of a health plan, ensuring that our work meets both the letter and the spirit of the law is an ever-present challenge. Health plans employ legal, compliance and policy departments to meet state and federal requirements placed upon them. Whether discussing legislative policy, implementing new laws, or monitoring network and plan compliance, staff has an enormous task. This seminar will delve into legal and compliance dilemma’s facing health plans today. Topics will include ethics in health care, legal questions surrounding Medicaid payments, mental health parity, compliance enforcement and anti-trust issues.

Pharmacy Management: Keeping Members Safe while Controlling Costs
April 28, 2010
Hilton San Francisco Airport
Although prescription drugs account for only ten percent of health care spending, consumers often consider pharmaceuticals to be one of their most burdensome out-of-pocket costs. Innovations in health plan pharmaceutical management provide not only a means of controlling spending but also the opportunity to educate members on the safe and appropriate use of prescription drugs. This technical seminar will consider how health plans can more effectively manage their prescription drug programs by educating members on where health care dollars go and how drugs should be used. We will also delve into innovation in prescription drug management and care.
