What is reference-based pricing? In this virtual summit, CPR provides an overview of RBP: how/why it works, how the model evolved, and where it’s going next. Experts discuss the risks, rewards, and regulatory implications of RBP, and a panel of real-world purchasers who have implemented an RBP strategy talk about why they chose reference-based pricing, how it’s impacted their health spending, and lessons learned along the way.

Topics covered include:

• Various models of reference pricing in use today
• How a vendor-based RBP model integrates with a self-insured employer
• The risks of RBP, including balance billing and barriers put up by providers, as well as how vendors and employers work to mitigate these risks.
