Kleinke's keynote session, "Money Changes Everything: Health Industry Structure After Health Reform," will provide a critical overview of where health care reform stands today, as it implements, and how it is likely to play out for Medicaid plans. This session examines the concurrent effects of the reform plan, health insurance market upheavals, a flurry of mergers and acquisitions in the health plan and provider sectors, and the impact of emerging information technologies on today's Medicaid plans - laying out a practical framework and set of critical success factors for Medicaid plans going forward.
"We are proud to sponsor J.D. Kleinke's keynote address at MHPA's 2013 Conference," said Bill Haggett, Senior Vice President of Corporate Development and Strategy at TMG Health. "Mr. Kleinke's experience and knowledge of the health care climate in the face of reform is a valuable and useful tool for everyone in the industry, including payers, providers and solutions vendors."
A forceful, non-partisan advocate for an evidence-driven, computerized, patient-centric health care system, Kleinke has been instrumental in the creation of four health care information organizations; helped hospital systems, insurers and physician groups prepare for medical computerization and health reform; provided business, product and technology strategy services to new and established health care companies; and sat on the Boards of several public and privately held health information companies.
He has authored three books on the U.S. health care system, "Bleeding Edge: The Business of Health Care in the New Century," "Oxymorons: The Myth of a U.S. Health Care System," and "Catching Babies" (2011). His work has appeared in The Wall Street Journal, New York Times, Barron's, Health Affairs, JAMA, the British Medical Journal, Modern Healthcare, Managed Healthcare, Forbes, and numerous other publications.
