How can health systems use artificial intelligence to improve efficiency while supporting clinician well-being? In this webinar, Dr. Suzy Kobylinski from Geisinger will explain how AI is being integrated into a broader organizational strategy for well-being, grounded in individual thriving, mental health, a culture of well-being, and workplace innovation. The conversation will highlight two key initiatives: the systemwide adoption of ambient scribing through Abridge and the use of AI to help draft responses to inbox messages.
Speakers will discuss how Geisinger’s ambient scribing effort grew from an employee engagement insight into an enterprise-wide tool designed to reduce documentation burden, save time, and allow physicians to focus more fully on patients during visits. The webinar will also examine reported gains in documentation efficiency, reduced cognitive load and support for more complete billing documentation.
In addition, attendees will learn about Geisinger’s “inboxology” model and how AI-assisted message drafting is being incorporated into inbox workflows to help manage message volume and reduce administrative strain. The discussion will also cover early results, lessons learned from implementation, patient response, and how these efforts may be reflected in broader well-being assessments. The session will conclude with practical advice for other organizations considering similar AI tools and reflections on how reclaimed time can be used in ways that truly support care team well-being.
Key Takeaways:
1. Learn how Geisinger uses AI to support clinician well-being.
2. See how ambient scribing and AI inbox tools can reduce documentation and message burden.
3. Gain practical implementation insights for organizations considering similar tools.

With significant Medicaid payment reductions projected for 2027, health systems are approaching a critical financial inflection point—one that will disproportionately impact medical groups, safety net services, and high-utilization populations. This fireside chat brings together executive leaders to discuss how to prepare now by redesigning care models, improving operational efficiency, strengthening hospital-physician alignment, and using digital tools that meaningfully reduce cost.
Through candid dialogue, the panel will explore what the cuts really mean for margins, where systems are most vulnerable, and which strategies deliver the strongest financial returns without compromising quality or access. Topics include team-based care, scheduling and template optimization, ED and inpatient utilization reduction, virtual care models, AI-enabled efficiencies, centralized functions, and unified quality and cost governance across the enterprise. This session delivers a realistic, actionable playbook for navigating the 2027 Medicaid landscape.
From Reactive to Proactive: Empowering Clinicians to Deliver Better Care
Wednesday, December 9, 12:00 pm ET

Rebecca Hicks, Medical Director, Provider Development, BookMark Medical
Dana McCalley, MBA, Vice President, Value-Based Care, Navina
Most care is still organized around the visit, and by then gaps have often been open for months. Moving past episodic, visit-based care takes more than good intentions. Clinicians need the right information at the right moment, and the ability to act on it. We'll explore how medical groups can give clinicians the tools, information, workflows, and support to manage patient health proactively, with clinicians staying in control of the decisions that matter.
Key Takeaways:
1. How to identify which patients need attention before their next visit
2. The information, workflow, and support pieces that make proactive care possible without adding to clinicians' workload
3. Practical first steps for your organization, and how to measure whether they're working
CY 2027 Outpatient Prospective Payment System (OPPS) Final Rule Overview
Thursday, December 10, 2026, 2:00 pm ET
Darryl Drevna, MA, Senior Director, Government Relations, AMGA
Alicia Sawyer, Government Relations Assistant, AMGA
This webinar will provide AMGA members with an understanding of the CY 2027 Outpatient Prospective Payment System (OPPS) and Ambulatory Surgical Center (ASC) Final Rule, including the following key topics:
• Finalized 2.3% increase to OPPS and ASC payment rates (down from 2.4% proposed), reflecting a 3.2% hospital market basket update reduced by a 0.9 percentage point productivity adjustment
• Continued 2 percentage point payment reduction for hospitals that do not meet Hospital Outpatient Quality Reporting Program requirements
• Finalized payment for 340B-acquired drugs at ASP minus 28% (rather than the proposed ASP minus 33.4%), offset by a budget-neutral 7.5% increase for non-drug services; non-340B drugs remain at ASP plus 6%
• Accelerated 340B remedy recoupment: the conversion factor offset increases from 0.5% to 2% (rather than the proposed 3%), with the $7.8 billion expected to be fully recovered by CY 2031
• Finalized expansion of site-neutral payments to imaging services without contrast furnished in excepted off-campus provider-based departments, paid at the PFS-equivalent rate, with an exemption for rural sole community hospitals
• Continued phase-out of the Inpatient Only list (637 services removed) and addition of 618 procedures to the ASC Covered Procedures List
• Other finalized policies, including prior authorization for eight additional botulinum toxin injection codes, payment for Software as a Medical Service (SaMS), quality reporting program updates, and changes to the Overall Hospital Quality Star Rating methodology
• Key implementation considerations ahead of the January 1, 2027 effective date
