Thank you to our February 4, 2021 Event Sponsor
The first EBPA meeting of 2021 will be a Virtual Event. We do hope as the year moves forward we have opportunity to offer in person events, but for now, we continue to hold events virtually. REMEMBER to test your access in advance. Do not wait until the session begins to log in. If you experience issues during the session be sure to submit the problem in the chat box.

This event is approved for one hour for each presentation by the Office of the Insurance Commissioner (WA OIC). See below for more details.*
Our first presenter - Christopher Kodama, MD, MBA; Embright, LLC - will address:
Clinically Integrated Networks (CIN) Provide a Flexible Framework to Combat the Top Healthcare Issues
The current structure of our national healthcare is in disarray. This morning Dr. Kodama will describe the landscape of today’s networks, the history of Clinically Integrated Networks, how CINs drive a path to better member health and create alignment of stakeholder goals. In addition, a deeper dive will be taken into what are the possible scenarios around outcomes in value-based reimbursement models and mechanics of the gain/deficit share between stakeholders.
The second presenter - Dr. John Dunn, Kaiser Permanente Washington - will focus on:
COVID-19 Vaccine Review
Dr. John Dunn will present up-to-date information on COVID-19 vaccine options, distribution tactics locally, nationally and globally, and the research and approval process to combat misinformation disseminated through social media, which has caused skepticism within the general population.
Dr. Dunn conducts research through Kaiser Permanente Washington Health Research Institute and Kaiser Permanente Research Affiliates Evidence-Based Practice Center, holds a clinical instructor role in the Family Medicine Residency Programs at the University of Washington School of Medicine, and serves on several government and professional committees, including the Washington State Department of Health’s Vaccine Advisory Committee, the Washington Vaccine Association Vaccine Committee, and VAX Northwest Oversight Committee. Additionally, in November Governor Jay Inslee announced Dr. Dunn, along with Dr. Ed Marcuse, will represent Washington in the multi-state COVID Vaccine Scientific Safety Review Workgroup in coordination with California, Oregon and Nevada.
