Plenary
Pushing through the Tipping Point
Judi Gooding, Vice President, Signature Programs, March of Dimes Foundation
In this decade, CenteringPregnancy may reach a tipping point to become the standard of care in many clinics, but new approaches and multiple partners are needed to take advantage of the opportunities and address barriers to making this happen. Throughout its long-standing support of CenteringPregnancy, March of Dimes has adapted its approaches to aid hundreds of providers in taking up and sustaining the care model. Now, hear how March of Dimes is bringing more players and approaches to the arena in an effort to extend the reach and impact of group prenatal care through its community, state and national efforts.
Flipping Healthcare: Innovation Opportunities and Challenges
Beth Monahan, CNM, MPH, Centering Healthcare Institute
Change is hard, especially in healthcare. And yet, we know our current healthcare system is failing us. We'll explore bold innovations that are flipping healthcare on its head and discuss the common challenges that change agents encounter.
Centering Outcomes and Payment Reform: Shifting Resources to Prevention
Amy Picklesimer, MD, Medical Director, Greenville Health System Obstetric Center
John Craine, Regional Director, Centering Healthcare Institute
Centering is driving significant improvements in birth outcomes across the country and preventing tens of millions of dollars in avoidable health care costs. Yet despite great results and huge potential savings, Centering providers still struggle to justify their Centering practices to practice administrators. Wouldn't it be great if we could return some of those savings to the providers who are delivering those great results? "Well, it's happening!"
A Health Plan Perspective: How Anthem works to improve healthcare and birth outcomes
Karen Shea, Vice President Maternal and Child Services, Anthem, Inc.

You will hear about some of the exciting initiatives and collaborations that are making a difference.
