Rod Burkett, President and CEO of Gardant Management Solutions, will serve as a guest speaker during the Senior Living 100 Leadership & Strategy Conference.
Burkett will discuss affordability in senior housing. He will be joined by Wayne Smallwood, executive director of the Affordable Assisted Living Coalition. Brian Cloch, founder and principal of Cloch Management, will serve as the moderator.
Here is an overview of their affordable senior living presentation:
The Other 80% – Addressing Affordability in Senior Living
Assisted living serves the upper 10% of the senior population and affordable housing serves the lower 10%. With no affordable options for the other 80%, seniors are placed in skilled nursing facilities despite it being a less desirable and more costly alternative. And as more capacity comes online, what does it mean to your organization as your competitors increasingly pursue the same clients? Discuss fundamental ways to address affordability in assisted living, and explore out-of-the-box ideas to create new models that payers will have a stake in.
Senior Living 100 is an annual gathering of leaders from large senior living providers. Corporate executives attend the conference to gain a deeper understanding of major changes taking place in the industry.
This year’s conference will take place from March 7 – 9 at the Hyatt Regency Lost Pines Resort in Texas.
