Join key policymakers and researchers on Wednesday, February 14, 2007, for a dialogue about important issues in long-term care delivery and financing. Mary Naylor, Ph.D., R.N., University of Pennsylvania School of Nursing, will open the discussion with a presentation on transitions in long-term care, identifying areas where public policy might serve to limit the number of transitions and make those that are necessary more transparent. Naylor's presentation will be followed by a panel of renowned experts will place the evidence in a “real world” policy and operational context, as well as discuss their perceptions of broader long-term care issues and how they might best be addressed. Confirmed panelists include Meg Bourbonniere, Ph.D., G.N.P., at Yale School of Nursing; Richard Bringewatt, co-founder and president of the National Health Policy Group; Susan Reinhard, Ph.D., co-director of the Rutgers Center for State Health Policy; and Robert Rosati, Ph.D., director of outcomes analysis and research at the Visiting Nurse Service of New York Center for Home Care Policy & Research.
