MANASQUAN,
N.J. — There
is an ongoing
controversy
surrounding return-on-investment (ROI) of disease management
programs is calculated. Historically there's been a high level of
difficulty measuring the financial
impact of DM programs because of unclear parameters. To make
matter worse, changes in health costs over time cannot
necessarily be attributed to
just one cause.
What are the true cost savings of
specific disease
management programs? And what is the best way to calculate the ROI of
your DM programs? Is there a standardized methodology for evaluating
programs? Do you need to examine only healthcare cost savings or the
impact on the patient’s day-to-day functioning, absenteeism
and overall productivity?
Join the Managed Care
Information Center
and experts on disease management analysis for a discussion about
disease management and ROI in the special 90-minute audio conference,
"Disease Management ROI: Benchmarks, Metrics, and Case Studies
for Success," scheduled for Thursday, May 3, 2007 at 1:30
PM Eastern
