Webinar replay: Medicare policy changes impacting behavioral health services workforce and population health
This webinar was held on September 12, 2023.
Continuing our discussion from Part 1 of this series, recent rule changes proposed by the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) will enable regulatory and statutory expansion of behavioral health services and providers. This webinar focused on how those changes will impact the already strained workforce, and the corresponding impacts on population health, value-based care, and the needs of special populations. Experts dove deeper into approaches health systems may adopt to handle workforce shortages while expanding access.
Learning Objectives:
- Understand how CMS rule updates on behavioral health services will help expand needed care for Medicare recipients and dual eligible populations.
- Create strategies for addressing the 2023 CMS rule updates to benefit employers and delivery systems toward improving whole health outcomes and reducing behavioral health workforce shortages.
