EDI: Explore the Breadth of Possibilities
Blue Cross Blue Shield of Arizona is very pleased to be hosting the National Plan Automation Group (NPAG) Conference in 2011. The conference will be held at the Hilton Scottsdale Resort in beautiful Scottsdale Arizona from Sunday, March 20th through Wednesday, March 23rd.
We are planning a comprehensive program with great speakers who will address topics such as 5010 and IDC-10, impacts of healthcare reform on EDI, real-time claims, EHRs, web portal strategies, mandating EDI and adoption strategies, incentive programs, updates on CMS, COBC and Association mandates.
The conference also includes Open Forum sessions where Blue Plan associates and Vendors staff share their experiences and ideas, successes and challenges, to help improve business processes, reduce costs, increase productivity and take advantage of new opportunities.
As always there will be opportunities to network with NPAG vendors, your fellow Blue associates, and other industry attendees during the special activity events. Not only will you have a chance to experience a bit of what Arizona has to offer, these events also give you time to enjoy industry and social conversation outside of the conference venues.
Arizona has so much to see and experience that you may want to consider extending your stay. Take time to visit the majestic Grand Canyon, enjoy the spectacular beauty of Sedona, or see the Wild West in historical Tombstone. Or, perhaps you'd prefer a spring season baseball game, playing a round of golf at one of the beautiful courses or relaxing and rejuvenating at one of the many wonderful spas. There are so many, many more things to do, but whatever it is that you enjoy, come early or stay late and have a fabulous time in Arizona!
