Outlook for 2017 and Beyond - Five Exposures to Watch in Health CareEpstein Becker Green
Mark Lutes, Chair of the Board of Directors of Epstein Becker Green and a Member of the firm’s Health Care and Life Sciences practice, delivered the attached keynote presentation, "Outlook for 2017 and Beyond - Five Exposures to Watch," at the Healthcare Financial Forum on March 15, 2017.
The Trump Administration’s policies, and decisions made by Congress, will transform how providers deliver care and receive payment for healthcare services. While President Trump’s February 28 speech to Congress offered few details of a White House vision on health care reform, clues as to a potential future are offered in bills under consideration in the House. In this interactive presentation, we will help finance executives predict the top exposures for their organizations in 2017 by reviewing elements of the shift in the payment paradigm, the Washington policy context and its impact on the threats and opportunities facing their organizations, and the outlook for further legislative and regulatory change.
Key exposures that will be covered include:
Executives Orders & Scrutiny of Regulation
Tax Reform Impacting Commercial Health Care Coverage
Medicare Trends
Exchange Population Coverage Changes
Medicaid Expansion Population Financing Changes

A Strategic Approach: GenAI in EducationPeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.
