Defining and Delivering Disability-Competent Care - Building a Disability-Competent Provider Network (01:06:07)

This was the eighth webinar in Webinar Series #1, "Leading Healthcare Practices and Training: Defining and Delivering Disability-Competent Care". The objective of this webinar was to explore a disability-competent provider network through:

• Building on existing capacity,

• Understanding the importance of supporting the participants' existing, productive specialty relationships,

• Identifying and promoting accessibility within a large provider network,

• Identifying and developing disability-competency in a broad provider network,

• Identifying unmet participant needs and engaging providers to meet those needs.

Presenters included June Kailes, William Henning and Christopher Duff.

This webinar was presented on December 3, 2013 before a live audience of healthcare providers and health plan staff who work with persons with disabilities. It was hosted by the Medicare Medicaid Coordination Office (MMCO) in the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS), The Lewin Group, The Disability Practice Institute, and the Institute for Healthcare Improvement.

The CMS Medicare-Medicaid Coordination Office is facilitating this optional webinar series for interested providers and health care professionals, front-line staff with health plans and practices, and stakeholders to introduce and explore the many uses of the DCC Model. The DCC model is a resource for providers, health plans, and healthcare organizations to enhance capacity to integrate care for adults with disabilities.
