Are Your Back and Spine Service Lines Aligned for Success?
Successful spine and back care service lines require a foundation rooted in market knowledge, organizational commitment, and physician alignment, as well as the fluidity to adapt to ever-changing conditions, including reimbursement changes, technological advances, and a growing patient preference for non-surgical options. Is your back/spine service line as strongly positioned for success as it could be?
Join HealthLeaders Media for this 90-minute Webcast, including Q&A, to learn from leaders from diverse spine and back care programs: the North Side of Chicago's largest independent teaching hospital and a rural Arkansas hospital with a majority Medicare population.

- Plan for the future of preventive, non-invasive back and spine care, including such alternative therapies as pain management, interventional radiology, and various exercise and massage programs

- Prepare for the future of reimbursement, including episodes of care, bundled payments, and zero-readmission-rate requirements
