SUMMARY:The CMS Age-Friendly Hospital Measure 
DESCRIPTION:This event has concluded. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nThe 2025 CMS Age-Friendly Hospital Measure is a set of guidelines and metrics designed to improve the quality of care for older adults in hospitals. It assesses hospitals on their commitment to providing age-friendly care\, focusing on key aspects such as patient goals\, medication management\, frailty screening\, social vulnerability\, and age-friendly leadership commitment. Hospitals must demonstrate compliance with these areas to receive credit under the measure.  \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nThis webinar will focus on the Lahey Hospital & Medical Center’s commitment to improving care for older adults while meeting these requirements. This includes leveraging the EHR and practices already in place while creating new processes to address these age-friendly principles and ultimately improve outcomes for this population. Participants will gain information on best practices aimed at achieving these goals and meeting the CMS requirements.

SUMMARY:Get Paid to Pay: Maximize Rebates & Reduce AP Costs
DESCRIPTION:This event had concluded.  \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nIf 30–50% of your accounts payable (AP) spend is still going out by check or ACH\, you’re not just dealing with inefficiencies — you’re leaving serious money on the table. \n\n\n\nIt’s time to modernize your payment strategy and start turning your AP process into a powerful profit center. \n\n\n\nIn this session\, Corpay will show how it helps finance teams reduce payment-related operating costs\, prevent fraud\, and earn substantial rebates — often tripling the return over five years. \n\n\n\nYou’ll learn how real AP teams have uncovered millions in potential ROI by rethinking how payments flow through their department — with tangible examples and financial impact models to prove it. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nWhat we’ll cover: \n\n\n\n✔ How to shift more of your AP spend to high-rebate virtual card payments \n\n\n\n✔ The financial impact of reducing manual payments and payment errors \n\n\n\n✔ Real-world results: How one typical client increased rebates 3X \n\n\n\n✔ The formula for making AP automation more than pay for itself
