State Of The Industry: Updates On Mergers, Acquisitions, & Affiliations During & Post Pandemic
Join us this morning as we start the day with a status update of the industry.
While there is no “roadmap” to successful partnerships for most organizations serving complex needs consumers, the leaders at the helm of those organizations will be better positioned to face that challenge after a clear look at the MA&A landscape including, who has merged with who, what acquisitions are making news, and what new affiliations have been formed.

9:15 a.m. – 10:15 a.m.: Plenary Panel Keynote: The Future of Private Equity Investments In The Health & Human Service Space
Private equity investments in health care are changing the outlook for sustainability of traditional provider organizations—with new service offerings, investment capital for technology & marketing, pressure on fees, and the ability to accept value-based reimbursement. This increased competition creates challenges for traditional provider organizations. The weakened financial state of many provider organizations caused by the COVID-19 pandemic means private equity and other investment firms have presented opportunities by the financial breakdowns. Where does your organization stand and what will this mean going forward? Are you a potential target for private equity interests and if so, how can you leverage the opportunity to sustain and grow while preserving your mission? And if not, what can you learn from the competition and how to defend against them?
After this session expect to takeaway:

11:15 a.m. – 12:15 p.m.: Best Practices For Mergers & Acquisitions Preparation: How Do You Use M&A To Gain Strategic Advantage?
Some studies have shown mergers to have a high failure rate – sometimes failing as often as 50% to 90% of the time. However, economies of scale and organizational size are an integral part of strategy for health and human service organizations. The question – how to develop a merger and acquisition plan that makes your organizational strategy successful. Don’t miss this engaging look at how to overcome the challenges of making mergers and acquisitions work – selecting the right organizations, the M&A process, developing governance and management structures for a newly-merged organization, as well as the challenges of managing a bigger and more diverse organization, through the lens of organizations who have made it work.

As the health care industry addresses the aftermath of the COVID-19 disruption, board members and executives must collaborate on understanding the changing market and map a plan for recovery and sustainability. They must conduct a deep dive into the new challenges and opportunities for non-profit health and human service organizations and the changing role of the board in a time of competition and new business models. Learn how to update your board on the impacted landscape and the need for updated strategies for sustainability. Understand the conditions for the new “best practice board.” This means developing the skills to support modern health care in a value-based environment, developing the ability to preserve purpose and know when to redefine it, and perfecting the ability to monitor finance, business, compliance, and ethics.
The following key components will be discussed:

In this multi-part Forum, you will hear from population health expert, Dr. Michael Franczak, how Copa Health is tracking and using social determinants of health (SDoH) in their complete functional analysis of clients as well as to help identify the need that is driving specific client behaviors. Dr. Franczak will also present how SDoH data is used by Copa Health to guide intervention recommendations and improve client engagement. Dr. Jennifer Bolduc from NextGen Healthcare will then demonstrate how whole-person care organizations collect and use SDoH data in combination with other data sources and how insights from this data can drive actionable recommendations. For example, Dr. Bolduc will demonstrate how certain combinations of SDoH data may change treatment recommendations for people with different co-existing conditions. Finally, Javier Favela from NextGen will conclude the Forum by moderating a panel discussion including Dr. Franczak and Dr. Bolduc on how a solid SDoH foundation leads to better outcomes for both patients and providers.

The question of executive compensation is an important topic for boards and organizations who want to retain current executives and ensure a smooth succession when the time comes. The 2021 OPEN MINDS Executive Compensation Survey provides the data and trends to help develop a compensation and retention plan that is in tune with the current market. This survey provides information on:
In her Keynote, Angela L. Perri, Chief Medicare Officer at UPMC Health Plan, will address the roles of technology & analytics across the continuum of care. Analytics should be multi-dimensional, but most importantly drive positive outcomes and quality goals for the people receiving care. Ms. Perri will discuss how UPMC HealthPlan has factored all of that into what they do and design, recognizing the importance of simplicity in the workflow. This allows for both personalization for individuals and families along with population management to inform best practices, value-based programs, and aligned payer-provider partnerships.
From a technology standpoint, Ms. Perri will share her experiences based on her responsibility for development of UPMC's internally developed clinical software solutions that span the health plan and network hospitals—tele-health and digital assets, including the plan's member mobile app and RxWell behavioral health coaching tool, as examples. Her teams work in partnership with IT to design and establish requirements and needs for real time data, intelligent and aligned workflows, and a myriad of business rules as well as precision analytics that drive quality, affordability, and impact across UPMC's book of business.

The pandemic has shown us a fourfold increase in depression and anxiety, as well as an increase in substance use. More consumers than ever are turning to digital platforms for support for behavioral and mental health. As we continue to see a shift toward supportive legislation from the federal and state levels, we will also see more robust care collaboration between primary care and behavioral health. Where does the government come into all this and how can they continue to support our behavioral health system? We are thrilled to welcome Elinore McCance-Katz, M.D., Ph.D., the former Assistant Secretary for Mental Health & Substance Use for the U.S. Department of Health & Human Services under two very different administrations, as she explores this very robust subject matter through a discussion and Q&A forum.

In the pre-pandemic era, we were already facing the incorporation of new digital technologies and technology-enable services. We are now contending with an influx of new service delivery models, seemingly all based in a virtual environment—it is important to balance organizational sustainability, maintaining your unique culture, and how these technologies can be integrated into your strategy and organization. A formal approach to managing these changes with an eye toward understanding your organization’s culture is necessary and begins with the leadership team.
In this session you will learn:
Value Track
The field has shifted from complicated to complex—moving from a highly regulated field with structured compensation, to a field that is still highly regulated, but is now more competitive. The difference is subtle, but important. Complicated systems may have many parts, but when the parts interact, they do not change each other. In complex systems, on the other hand, when things interact, they change one another in unexpected and irreversible ways. Complicated and complex systems demand different leadership skills. Who will be the successful leaders in a time of complexity? Executives who are familiar with uncertainty, able to foster innovation, willing to take risk, and comfortable with tension, conflict, and lack of consensus.
In this session, we will review:
Value Track
It is essential for organizations to evaluate future leaders not only on their ability to play a specific role or on their skill set, but also on whether they are a fit in the workplace culture. An ideal leader is someone who has the talent to help the company grow, is a "cultural fit" to thrive in the role, and can contribute to the work philosophy and company values. Like all service organizations, the single largest expense for health and human service organizations is talent, and the ability to motivate your team is a "must have" competency for organizational success.
This session will include discussions on:
Strategy Track
In our evolving value-based market, organizations need to build a leadership team that brokers new ideas, drives change using organizational pressure, takes risks to manage the new competition, and creates new processes for balancing structure and innovation. The health care market is in the middle of a massive transformation—one that’s designed to ultimately improve outcomes and reduce costs. But getting there is going to be a challenge. Market share will gradually move to provider organizations that are willing to accept risk. And there will be some spectacular successes—and some spectacular failures—in these new roles. How will your organization get there? These challenges and how executives can prepare their organizations to be sustainable in a changing complex market is of utmost importance.
In this session we will focus on:
During this session, we will take a bus to the Gettysburg National Military Park, where licensed battlefield guide Robert Prosperi will lead a tour of the important sites from day one of the Battle of Gettysburg. This session will include a review of General Buford’s actions, a discussion of the history of the battlefield sites, and time for questions and discussion with our guide. After we leave the battlefield OPEN MINDS' Senior Associate, Ken Carr will wrap up the session with a classroom discussion of the leadership lessons learned from General Buford and the application of those lessons to the health care market today.
General John Buford played a critical role in the first day of the Battle of Gettysburg; his defense of the “high ground” set the stage for the Union’s eventual victory over the Confederate army. General Buford believed that a leader’s duty is to ensure their team is “positioned and prepared” for the challenges ahead—a good lesson for any leader, whether in the midst of a battle or in the midst of health care reform.
Before the start of the Battle of Gettysburg, General Buford’s troops were some of the first Union forces to enter the town of Gettysburg. Recognizing that he was facing a large concentration of Confederate troops, General Buford had positioned his forces to maintain the high ground of Cemetery Hill, South of Gettysburg, where they were able to hold off the Confederates until reinforcements could arrive. By maintaining the tactically superior position in Gettysburg for the Union, General Buford set in motion the eventual victory for the North. General Buford’s case study highlights the importance of strategic positioning and anticipatory leadership. (Limited to 45 participants)

The health and human service system is being shaped by a payer focus on integration through consumer-centric care coordination between primary care, wellness maintenance, behavioral health, home care, and community supports. As we continue to navigate the era of value-based reimbursement, organizational culture and creating a "raving fan" customer service experience will be both expected, as well as appreciated. Health care has historically been identified with some of the worse customer experiences, and the time for change is now.
This session will take us through a new paradigm of thinking, where we will address best practices in:

During this session, we will take a bus to the Gettysburg National Military Park, where Col. Fred Wieners, Licensed Battlefield Guide, will lead a private walking tour of Little Round Top and the surrounding area. This session will include a review of the Union army’s defenses on day two of the battle, a discussion of the history of the battlefield site, and time for questions and discussion with our guide. After we leave the battlefield, OPEN MINDS' Senior Associate, Joseph Naughton-Travers will wrap up the session with a classroom discussion of the leadership lessons learned from Colonel Joshua Lawrence Chamberlain and the application of those lessons for managing your health care team.
Colonel Chamberlain and his 20th Maine regiment’s defense of Little Round Top is perhaps one of the most famous confrontations of the Battle of Gettysburg. This session examines how he, in times of great distress, recognized the power of strategic thinking, made the necessary quick decisions, and preserved the overall goal of the Union Army. Colonel Chamberlain’s own battlefield experiences help us to realize the importance of good leadership, and to examine transactional and transformational leadership styles.
Little Round Top is one of two rocky hills located in the South of Gettysburg, and the position of the far-left flank of the Union army during the Battle of Gettysburg. On the second day of the battle, Union troops left this strategic ground undefended, leaving the Union line open to attack from Confederate forces. Colonel Chamberlain was ordered to guard this position and quickly understood the strategic significance of the small hill—meaning that his regiment must hold the Union line at all costs. In the last moments, as all seemed lost, Chamberlain ordered a bayonet charge that almost doubled back on its own line, capturing over one hundred soldiers, and maintaining the Union defense of the high ground of the battlefield.

There are thousands of new digital technologies and technology-enabled services focused on the health and human service market, and as these technologies gain adoption, they are fundamentally changing service delivery and consumer relationships for provider organizations. The key—complicated systems are now virtual and demand different leadership skills. Leaders in organizations need to be adaptable: technology has remade the transactional and transformational leadership roles of executives. The transactional part is more apparent—new processes, new data, and new organizational relationships to manage. But the transformational one is not so apparent—being the force that overcomes apathy and resentment of technology-driven change.
In this session, we'll discuss:
During this session, we will take a bus to the Gettysburg National Military Park, where licensed battlefield guide Terry Fox will lead a tour across the field where Pickett’s Charge took place. This session will include a review of Generals Lee and Longstreet’s relationship and decision-making styles and time for questions and discussion with our guide. To provide the proper context for this session, a handout including a brief introduction to Generals Lee and Longstreet and the Battle of Gettysburg will be made available to attendees. After we leave the battlefield, Kimberly Bond, MS, LMFT, Senior Associate, OPEN MINDS, will wrap up the session with a classroom discussion of the leadership lessons learned from the Pickett's Charge and the application of those lessons for today's health care executives.
Pickett’s Charge may be the most infamous incident at the Battle of Gettysburg. We will retrace the steps of General Robert E. Lee and General James Longstreet as they made the decisions that would ultimately determine not only the outcome of the Battle of Gettysburg, but possibly the ultimate outcome of the Civil War.
On the final day of the Battle of Gettysburg, commander of The Army of Northern Virginia, General Robert E. Lee found himself at odds with his trusted commander, General James Longstreet. Generals Lee and Longstreet disagreed at several critical points during the Battle of Gettysburg. The largest disagreement between the two officers came when Lee first talked to Longstreet about the planned Pickett’s Charge on the afternoon of July 3. Longstreet would reluctantly and finally agree to Lee’s plan. This is an example of leader vs follower command disagreement.
The assault required the Confederate troops to march nearly a mile over an open field and to climb over several fences under open fire from the Union line. This disastrous end to the battle resulted in a fifty percent casualty rate among the Confederate troops and is seen as not only the decisive end to the Battle of Gettysburg, but also the turning point or high-water mark for the confederacy in the Civil War.

The question of executive compensation is an important topic for boards and organizations who want to retain current executives and ensure a smooth succession when the time comes. As many will tell you, merit alone does not always guarantee a strong compensation package—in many circumstances it comes down to the power of negotiation. But what are the considerations? How has the compensation landscape changed? And how can you assure that you find the best possible package for both you and the organization you are serving? In this unique session, OPEN MINDS Senior Associate, Jim Fiorenzo will lead the panel discussion on everything executives need to consider when negotiating compensation packages.

A formal approach for managing change, beginning with the leadership team, should be developed early, but adapted often as change moves through an organization. An ideal leader is someone who has the talent to help the company grow, is a "cultural fit" to thrive in the role and can contribute to the work philosophy and company values. If you are going to be an effective leader, you also need to be able to cultivate the expectations of very diverse staff members. We are met with workforce challenges, and how the pandemic has shifted how employees think about work. Organizations need to think in the long-term about how to grow their talent pool from within and build an effective workforce that can grow into the managers and leaders needed to keep your organization successful in the future, as well as explore innovations that can help you personally, as formal leaders. Join us for this exciting discussion focused on the keys to developing yourself as a leader, and how to foster internal workforce growth to ensure long-term organizational success.
