PRESENTED BY SUE DESS, CEO CRESTLINE ADVISORS

Tuesday, October 14, 2020, 10:00 am to 3:00 pm (one hour lunch break at noon) on ZOOM

Calling All Executives
The next segment in IACP's Executive Development Series is "Understanding Contracts to Ensure Timely and Accurate Payment" presented by Sue Dess, CEO of Crestline Advisors. Sue will meet with IACP members in a four-hour training session to discuss the challenges faced and potential strategies for working with the State's Managed Care Organizations (MCOs).
 
Ms. Dess is a former MCO and health care system executive who has been providing health care business consulting for ten years. Through her direct work with Medicaid agencies, providers, and MCOs she recognizes the realities associated with contracting, reimbursement, and timely and accurate payment.
 
Before the meeting, Sue will participate in a small focus group meeting across the spectrum of IACP providers. She will use the information to capture the particular issues facing IACP members and identify potential actions.
 
This opportunity will provide vital Iowa-specific information to ensure organizations are fully informed about how to work effectively with the State's Managed Care Organizations.
