The Inflection Point Healthcare Summit brings together leaders across healthcare, technology, and policy to explore how value-based care and emerging technologies, including Artificial Intelligence, are transforming healthcare delivery. With Maryland's all-payer model​ as a national testbed, the summit will focus on how aligned incentives can drive innovation, better outcomes, and sustainable costs. Maryland is in the midst of the most substantial value-based care experiment in the country, via its all-payer system. This economic model will fund AI and other innovative healthcare technology. As Maryland succeeds, the rest of the country will follow. Why Attend? For Health System, Health Plan, and Clinical leaders – The status quo in healthcare in not sustainable and the Maryland rate setting system creates unique challenges and opportunities. The inflection point summit is an opportunity to learn from your peers, policy makers and innovators about pressures and opportunities to inform your plans for the months and years ahead. For Policymakers – As representatives of patients and citizens, this is a great opportunity to voice your positions - and pressures - to a curated audience of health system, health plan, business and technology leaders. For Innovators – This is a unique opportunity to listen and learn about the challenges of enterprise customers and policy makers, and about the unique opportunities afforded by the Maryland model.
