RISE National: Celebrating Success and Synergy at the VIP Event

The vibrant city of Nashville became a melting pot of innovative minds and dynamic discussions as we hosted the highly anticipated RISE VIP event at the stylish 60 Vines, nestled within the bustling Assembly Food Hall on Broadway. Sponsored by Healthrageous, Wex, Clear Arch Health, and Amplifon, the evening was nothing short of a grand reunion of industry titans and a cradle for burgeoning partnerships.

The event, marked by the high caliber of MA plan executives in attendance, brought together a remarkable cadre of leaders from across the Value-Based Care spectrum. Leaders from five distinct Blue Cross Blue Shield plans, Centene, Global Health, Molina Healthcare, and many more gathered and connected, embodying the spirit of collaboration and forward-thinking that defines the MA space.

As wine and conversations flowed, topics such as Dual Eligible Special Needs Plans (DSNPs), Supplemental Benefits, marrying Meals & Engagement, and the impact of recent regulatory changes on the Medicare Advantage landscape were energetically discussed. The buzz of White House gossip and IRA chatter added a layer of energetic urgency to the discussions, reminding us all of the need for innovation and action, especially around matters of health equity and SDOH.

The evening was not just about business. It was a celebration of the connections that form the backbone of our industry. New acquaintances were made, old friendships were renewed, and ideas were shared in a non-competitive atmosphere of energetic commitment to service and progress. It was inspiring to see industry leaders, not by name but by the weight of their contributions and the breadth of their experience, engaging in meaningful dialogue.

One of the night's highlights was the ironic twist when one lucky VP from Molina Healthcare won the Apple Gift Card, a symbol of our appreciation for the relentless pursuit of innovation and excellence in healthcare.

To all who attended, your presence was a testament to the collective commitment to advancing healthcare. For those who couldn't make it, you were missed, and we hope this recap sparks a flame of anticipation for future gatherings.

The RISE VIP event was a reminder of the power of coming together, sharing knowledge, and building relationships. It underscored the importance of our shared goals and the impact we can achieve as a unified front. Here's to the ideas shared, the friendships formed, and the future collaborations that will undoubtedly emerge from such a remarkable night.

As we look forward to the next event, let's carry the spirit of innovation, collaboration, and connection with us. The horizon is bright with the promise of what we can achieve together - all in service of the MA plan members who need us most.

Thank you to everyone who made the night unforgettable. Here's to creating more moments of connection and inspiration. See you at the next gathering!
