Value Based Strategy Collaborative - 2026 Population Health Conference

What Sets the Value Based Strategy Collaborative Apart

• Member-Driven Content, Curated for Chief Marketing, Consumer, and Digital Officers: All our meetings are built around the priorities that matter most to today’s Population Health, Managed Care, and Provider Owned Health Plan healthcare executives. Members shape forum content to reflect their top priorities including rapid changes in the regulatory environment, data driven network and utilization management.

• The Right People, in the Right Room: Attendees include health system CXMOs from organizations like Mayo Clinic, Yale New Haven Health, Novant Health, and Intermountain, alongside key industry leaders - typically CEOs, Chief Growth Officers, Chief Marketing Officers and strategy executives. All participants are hand-selected based on their ability to contribute meaningfully to the conversation.

• A Forum Built for Relationships: Reception-style dinners and informal social gatherings welcome friends and family and facilitate long-term relationship building.

• True Partnership: This is a peer-to-peer forum. The industry executives who attend this event want to listen, contribute insights, and build lasting connections with Population Health, Managed Care, and Provider Owned Health Plan executives facing similar challenges.

Agenda topics will include:

Integrating Value-Based Strategy and Financial Sustainability: Health system executives explored how population health, finance, and operations leaders are co-developing strategies that balance clinical transformation with fiscal responsibility. Discussions highlighted frameworks for aligning risk-based contracts, growth initiatives, and operational execution.

Innovating Post-Acute and Home-Based Care Models: Members examined advanced strategies for optimizing post-acute networks, leveraging home-based programs, and managing total cost of care through expanded access points. Real-world examples showcased how systems are redesigning care portfolios to strengthen outcomes and performance in value-based arrangements.

Policy, Payment, and CMS Program Evolution: THMA’s policy experts and health system leaders provided critical updates on federal priorities, including changes to Medicare Advantage, Medicaid, and CMMI models. Sessions offered actionable insights to help organizations anticipate policy shifts and refine participation strategies across evolving value-based programs.

Redefining Partnerships and Consumer Experience: Drawing from payer, provider, and technology perspectives, executives discussed how consumer-centered design and cross-sector collaboration are driving measurable improvements in experience, trust, and growth across value-based ecosystems.
