While consolidation, among providers, health systems, and payers, is not a new health care industry phenomenon, the latest headlines suggest that the trend is on the rise and is only likely to continue in bigger, bolder ways. Market concentration has implications for the future of delivery system and payment reform, as well as for health care costs and patient access and quality. This webinar will focus on the implications and trade-offs of this market shift. Panelists will help define the basics of market concentration and competition, how experts measure the effects on different areas of the market, and how regulators approach assessing partnership proposals. This webinar discussion will also highlight lessons from historical periods of health care consolidation and some key items to watch out for moving forward.
