2016 NEHI Annual Meeting Policy Discussion Summary

On May 2-3, 2016 in Boston, MA, NEHI brought together multi-sector health care leaders, visionaries and experts for its annual meeting – One Health Care – to discuss the greatest challenges the health care system is currently facing. The conference started with a panel consisting of health care leaders who demonstrated how sectors can, and already are, working together to solve these challenges through cross-sector partnerships, or “innovations” of collaboration. This theme was echoed throughout the day, especially in our three break-out sessions on 2016 policy issues including: the cost of breakthrough therapies, the barriers to providing value outside of traditional sectors, and the conflict between personalized medicine and oncology payment reform.
