The Future of Healthcare Finance: 4 Themes from the HFMA Annual Conference

The conversations at this year's HFMA Annual Conference made one thing clear: value-based care is no longer just about reimbursement; it's becoming the foundation for how healthcare organizations operate.In this episode of Value-Based Care Insights, Daniel Marino is joined by Katie Gilfillan, Director of Healthcare Finance Policy at HFMA, to discuss four themes from the conference: the transition from value-based contracting to enterprise-wide performance management, capital allocation toward scalable care delivery and digital infrastructure, the practical use of AI to improve access and operational efficiency, and affordability as a key indicator of value-based care success, reflecting the need to improve outcomes while reducing unnecessary cost.Whether you're a healthcare executive, finance leader, physician leader, or payer, this conversation offers practical insights into where the industry is headed and how organizations can prepare for the next phase of value-based care.
