NYAPRS Note: As we speed towards the 2015 groundbreaking implementation of integrated managed health and behavioral healthcare, this year’s Executive Seminar will offer especially timely opportunities to hear from and speak with national and state innovators, policy makers, health plan and BHO representatives and leading community treatment, rehabilitation, housing and peer providers.
We are especially pleased that nationally acclaimed experts in health and behavioral health innovations Drs. Jeffrey Brenner and Peggy Swarbrick, and the National Council’s Linda Rosenberg will be heading up our program and that attendees will get to hear breaking news from our state policy makers panel just following the expected approval of the state budget.
Dr. Brenner’s groundbreaking ‘hotspotters’ innovation to address unmet healthcare and related needs in distressed communities and Dr. Swarbrick’s pioneering development of peer wellness coaching models and SAMHSA’s 8 Dimensions of Wellness are changing the face of integrated care across our nation. Linda Rosenberg’s vibrant leadership has brought heightened visibility and visionary leadership to the nation’s behavioral healthcare provider community.
Please be our guest for a Thursday evening networking reception that will feature health plan and BHO representatives. Come and be part of this very interactive, informative and inspiring 2-day program! See attached for program information. Full program will be available next week.
