Care Model 2030
Dr. Andy Anderson, Chief Medical Officer & Chief Quality Officer- RWJBarnabas Health.

The COVID pandemic has dramatically changed the health care industry and has provided opportunity to accelerate the adoption of more effective and efficient future care models, including virtual visits and care in the home environment.

Overseeing clinical activities for one of the largest academic health systems in the nation, Chief Medical Officer and Quality Officer, Andy Anderson, MD, has unique perspective on and experience in crafting care delivery models needed for the future that address the quadruple aims in health care. With a service area of five million people spanning New Jersey, one of the nation’s most densely populated states, RWJBarnabas Health serves a very diverse range of communities, ethnicities, and demographics. RWJBarnabas Health’s partnership with Rutgers University has formed New Jersey’s largest academic health care system. Their collaboration aligns with RWJBarnabas Health’s focus on education, research, and clinical activities.

We are seeing rapid change to care models in all environments, from primary to acute care settings. While the pandemic accelerated this rapid change and the need to increase emphasis on population health and wellness, the health care consumer must be the most impactful driver towards the “Care Model 2030.” In this session, Dr. Anderson will provide a forecast of what’s coming next and how we can get from here to there. Dr. Anderson will speak to:

•Leveraging telemedicine as an extension and enhancement of in-person care rather than an avenue for “one and done” virtual visits;
•For health care consumers, the importance of building a relationship with their primary care physician, which telehealth has made even easier to do given today’s busy schedules;
•Building a hybrid framework that allows patients to stay within the system and within a comprehensive “medical neighborhood” for all of their care needs throughout their health journey;
•The role of home monitoring devices as a growing opportunity to provide care, including emerging wearable devices;
•Best practices for uniting different constituencies of providers within a shared system and strengthening internal collaboration – and the nuances between being a leader, a manager or a player’s coach; and
•The importance of investing in health care’s most valuable resource by prioritizing the physical, mental and emotional wellness of people on the front lines, enabling clinical staff to perform at their best by allowing autonomy while providing support systems.
