2026 Annual Conference

Patrick Burton, SVP, Business Development, Lightbeam Health Solutions

Join Lightbeam Health Solutions to explore how AI-enabled Patient Outreach Programs help medical groups scale engagement, close care gaps, and reduce administrative burden. This session will highlight how these programs identify non-compliant patients using guidelines-based criteria and automate targeted educational outreach. Campaigns focus on high-impact areas including vaccinations, cancer screenings, and chronic disease optimization. Attendees will learn how automated outreach can complement existing engagement efforts, improve compliance rates, and support performance in value-based care arrangements. This session will provide practical insights into deploying scalable, data-driven outreach strategies, and will also touch on emerging AI capabilities in patient outreach and care gap closure, allowing time for discussion on future applications and participant interests.

Victoria Standley, Immunization Program Specialist, Sanford Health and Todd Wolynn, MD, Executive Director, Trusted Messenger Program

After analyzing immunization data, Sanford Health implemented an enterprise-level initiative to improve immunization rates and protect more patients from preventable disease. Improving immunization rates at scale requires more than education - it demands frontline innovation, operational discipline, and trusted communication. To meet this challenge, Sanford Health launched the Vax Champ Program, transforming confidence-building conversations into reliable, system-wide care. In this breakout session, Victoria Standley and Dr. Todd Wolynn share how Sanford Health operationalized vaccine success by empowering frontline leaders, standardizing workflows, and embedding trusted messenger principles into daily practice—driving operational efficiency, strengthening vaccine confidence, and advancing patient experience across a large health system.

Learning Objectives:

• Describe how Sanford Health operationalized immunization improvement through frontline staff, standardized workflows, and trusted communication.

• Identify key components of the Vax Champ and Trusted Messenger models that drive operational efficiencies and vaccine confidence at scale.

• Apply practical strategies from this enterprise approach to strengthen immunization operations and patient experience within their own organizations.

Physicians and patients will only see real value from AI when it reduces cognitive burden and makes care feel more connected, not when it simply accelerates documentation or coding. This session examines how AI that understands the full patient context across history, risk, and care settings can support better clinical decisions and more coherent patient experiences. We'll explore why the next step is AI as a unifying layer across workflows and teams, and how context-driven intelligence can meaningfully change how care is delivered.

This working session explores how a large medical group shifted from traditional vendor relationships to an accountable partnership model built on shared risk and measurable outcomes. Attendees will examine how aligning clinical, operational, and financial priorities under a single accountability framework drives sustainable improvements in access, clinician efficiency, and enterprise performance. Practical insights will be shared to help medical group leaders apply accountable partnership principles within their own organizations.

Session supported by IKS Health

This session presents qualitative findings from a collaborative research study with 5 AMGA members. Drawing from both patient and provider perspectives, we identify attitudes, beliefs, barriers and facilitators for targeted interventions to improve treatment engagement.

Session supported by Lilly

As CMS advances new risk-based and value-driven payment models, medical groups must move beyond compliance and redesign how they operate. This session explores how leading organizations are translating policy into performance by building more autonomous, data-driven operations that reduce administrative burden and scale value.

Learning Objectives

1. Identify key operational implications of the latest CMS models and how they impact medical group strategy, risk performance, and financial sustainability.
2. Assess areas of administrative friction within their organizations that limit performance under advanced payment models.
3. Describe how autonomous, data-driven workflows can improve efficiency, reduce burden, and strengthen outcomes in risk adjustment, prior authorization, quality reporting, and care coordination.
4. Develop a practical framework for realigning medical group operations to succeed in the evolving CMS environment.
