About this Webinar

Health systems are under pressure to do more with less: improve quality, strengthen revenue streams, and expand capacity while advancing toward value-based care. Doing so sustainably requires more than point solutions — it demands a deliberate organizational strategy.

Brought to you in partnership with SmartRise Health, this webinar brings together health system leaders and innovation partners to explore how organizations can lead with innovation. We'll discuss how health systems can build on the foundational pillars that support value-based care — including the imperative to improve outcomes for high-need and rising-risk populations.   

Featured Speakers: 

  • Zsolt Kulcsar, DO, MPH, MBA, Vice President, Virtual Health, Emory Healthcare 

  • Maria Fernanda Levis, Founder & CEO, Impactivo 

  • Alessandra Taverna-Trani, MBA, Managing Director, Medicaid Team, United Hospital Fund 

Key Takeaways

  1. Build capacity through value-based care. Payment models, population health data and community partnerships make it possible to reach high-need and rising-risk patients earlier.​

  2. Get more from what you already fund. Taking stock, deeper adoption and shared criteria raise the return on current programs before new ones are added.​

  3. Fund for the long term. Braided grant, philanthropic, payer and operating dollars carry programs from a first pilot to standard care.​

  4. Scale on shared infrastructure. AI in daily workflows and connected clinical and community data extend programs to every care setting.​

  5. Lead through people and partnerships. Change leaders, new workforce roles and trusted community organizations carry each step from pilot to practice.​
