Chico, California (September 12, 2011) – Landacorp, A Carewise Health Affiliate, has partnered with Accenture, to present a live webinar, The Turning Point, that uncovers how health plans and providers can work together to improve health and reduce costs. The complimentary webinar is scheduled at 2:00 p.m. Eastern/11:00 a.m. Pacific on September 20, 2011.

The presenters, Andrew Ziskind, Partner and Senior Executive at Accenture and Jay Dunlap, General Manager, Landacorp, will examine the practical steps of creating more efficient collaboration between health plans and providers in today's healthcare landscape.

"We are at a turning point in our industry and health plans and providers are both in a unique position to drive collaboration of care,” said Dunlap. "Health plans can serve as keepers of relevant health data and distributors of healthcare dollars, and providers can serve as owners of patient relationships and clinical accountability for treatment.”

In this one hour webinar, attendees will receive answers to the following questions:

· How will risk change the relationship between providers and health plans?

· What new services will health plans and providers both need to foster collaboration?

· How can providers and health plans share technology, information, and clinical best practices to improve health?

· What are the market-leading engagement strategies and self-service tools that can further empower collaboration?

The webinar recording and presentation will be available for attendees to review after the event. Webinar attendees will also receive an invitation and discounted registration for Landacorp's 2011 Healthcare Symposium in New Orleans, November 2 - 4, 2011, to continue the collaborative care conversation. The Symposium will bring attendees together with their peers and industry leaders to engage in thought leadership and informative sessions on how to achieve collaborative care and win in a new marketplace.
