We force people into choices because of policy that ends up being payment policy. There is evidence out there; we need to look at what works at the right time and at the right level. #advancedcaretech

Payment reform is absolutely necessary, Susan Ponder-Stansel says. Payment motivates behavior, it instigates action, she adds. But we also need better standards for the kind of care patients should receive. #AdvancedCareTech

We have the ability and the responsibility to help our system evolve. We just need to find the will to do it. -Susan Ponder-Stansel #advancedcaretech

"We have both the ability and the responsibility to help our system evolved from a payment-centered system of care to a patient-centered system of care. We know what works we just need to have the will to do so," Susan Ponder-Stansel says. #AdvancedCareTech

“Medicare Advantage seems to be the space where the government is looking for innovation... but there’s no agreement on what quality care looks like.” -Susan Ponder Stansel #advancedcaretech

We need to make substantial reforms in Medicare, especially to reimburse direct care workers. Otherwise, we won’t make a dent in the possibilities that these services can offer. #advancedcaretech

That's the end of our hour! Thanks to our panelists and attendees. We will share video from today's event once it is captioned. #AdvancedCareTech

My wish would be, we know what works, yet we tend to abandon it and I see that over and over again. We need to look at what works to deliver care at the right time, right location, right level, and have the will to disrupt the system and its business models #AdvancedCareTech

Advance directives are the best tool we have right now for making decisions at end of life, Susan Ponder-Stansel says, but most of the time when people are interacting with the medical system the document is not where they are. Tech can help with this, she says. #AdvancedCareTech

What about Medicaid? Looking forward to seeing what advancements Hawaii can bring to developing community based palliative care benefits. @NASHPhealth is building tools to help states now! #advancedcaretech

What a great panel! Tune in now! #hpm #advancedcaretech

If we started judging policy proposals not just by whether they check a box but whether they help a patient adhere to their goals, we'd have a better sense of what can really help patients, @ravi_b_parikh says. #AdvancedCareTech

“Advance directives are the tool that are best at the moment, but most of the time when people are interacting with the medical system the documents are not where they are.” Susan Ponder-Stansel #AdvancedCareTech @PetrieFlom @CTACorg

Technology is here to stay in the way medical care is delivered, @ravi_b_parikh says. Hopefully it will be integrated into advanced care, for those who want it. #AdvancedCareTech

"Integrated outreach gives me enormous encouragement," @dajonesjr says. "The virus has spurred tremendously positive transformation. I hope comfort to patients and families comes out of this." #AdvancedCareTech
