\"\"During the Mackinac Policy Conference MHA CEO Brian Peters sat down with leaders across the state to discuss advancing more collaborative, affordable and outcomes-driven care across Michigan.<\/strong>
Peters joined Paula Cunningham, Michael Patrick Shiels and Rep. Kathy Schmaltz (R-Jackson) on Michigan\u2019s Big Show<\/em><\/a> on iHeartRadio<\/em> to discuss the important role family caregivers play as extensions of healthcare teams.
During the interview, Peters and Rep. Schmaltz discussed legislation she introduced to alleviate the financial burden family caregivers face through a tax credit. Peters emphasized that when caregivers are prepared and supported, patients are more likely to recover safely at home, which ultimately improves healthcare costs for everyone.
In addition, Peters joined the A Healthier Michigan<\/em><\/a> podcast to discuss the shift away from the traditional fee-for-service reimbursement model, which pays for the volume of care provided, and moving toward value-based care that rewards better patient outcomes.
Throughout the interview, Peters stressed that meaningful progress requires stronger collaboration and shared accountability to improve patient care while making healthcare more affordable and accessible.
