MANASQUAN NJ USA -- PHARMA UPDATE NEWS SERVICE(TM) -- NOVEMBER 2, 2006: Hospital admissions and re-admissions are not only common among Medicare populations, but are most oftentimes preventable.

"Managing Transitions to Care for Medicare Patients To Avoid Costly Inpatient Admissions," a November 30, 2006 audio conference, will examine how to predict which Medicare patients are most likely to experience problems that can lead to higher costs of care when care transitioning and what strategies are most effective in managing these transitions.

For more information or to register, please visit, www.hin.com/cgi-local/link/news/pl.cgi?mtcpg.

Your expert panel of speakers, Danielle Butin, director of health services at Oxford Health Plans, a United Healthcare Company and Greg Lehman, PhD, president and chief executive officer, INSPIRIS, describe how their organizations are coordinating the care of Medicare patients as they transition through the healthcare system to minimize costly episodes of care.

WHO WILL BENEFIT?

CEOs, medical directors, disease management directors, managers and coordinators, health plan executives, care management nurses, business development and strategic planning directors.
