and William McHugh, Assistant Director of Health, Ohio Department of Health
Families and individuals affected by substance use disorders and mental illness move throughout multiple systems. To help the people
in their care successfully recover, providers must navigate the policies and resources in criminal justice, rehabilitation services, child
welfare, jobs and family services, and public health. In this session, Ohio’s leadership will provide an update on the policy priorities
emerging within their departments that will affect people with behavioral health needs and the providers who deliver their care.

Workshop Sessions
Do You Need Marketing? And, If So, What Does That Mean?
Monica Oss, CEO, OPEN MINDS
As the health and human service field moves more and more toward a competitive market-based environment, the question of
marketing becomes top-of-mind for most executive teams. But, your marketing needs are dependent on your organizational size and
your strategy. Small boutique organizations have different marketing needs than larger organizations. And different services lines
and customer types (both payers and consumers) require different approaches to generating organizational revenue. In this
information-packed session, OPEN MINDS CEO Monica E. Oss will walk you through the process of creating a map of your
organization’s marketing needs, a marketing structure and budget, and how best to manage your marketing function. Key elements of
her presentation include:
Your strategy and your marketing needs
Understanding your functional marketing needs
Creating a marketing budget
Where does marketing fit in your organization
Compliance Update: False Claims Act and HIPAA/HITECH
Paul Coval and Lisa Pierce Reisz; Vorys, Sater, Seymour and Pease, LLP

HIPAA/HITECH, as well as the threats and challenges they present to the provider community.
Healthcare Reform and its Impact on the Revenue Cycle – Part One
Steve Kohler, CEO, Deerfield Behavioral Health, Inc.
All healthcare providers will feel the impact of healthcare reform. Beginning to prepare now is essential. Understanding the basics of
reform and its potential impact on your organization is imperative to future success. Managing key areas of the revenue cycle that

comprehensive plan and implementing it throughout your organization will help ease the burden of reform.
Healthcare reform presents significant challenges in the following areas, all of which have ties and an impact on the revenue cycle:
Reimbursement reductions
Technological efficiencies

General Sessions
Moving Forward: Preparing for New Opportunities in SUD and MH Services
Becky Vaughn, CEO, State Associations of Addiction Services
Parity implementation and commercial insurance reforms are bringing unprecedented change to the field of addiction and mental
health services creating exciting opportunities as well as challenges for service providers. Providers must be prepared to look at
governance, business practices, workforce needs, marketing and much more. This session will look at some of the steps for
transformation using a guide developed by SAAS in collaboration with NIATx: Implementing Healthcare Reform: First Steps to
Transforming Your Organization, A Practical Guide for Leaders. The presentation will also include results from the SAAS

highlights from their recent report for providers, communities, and States: Maximizing Systems of Change: Informing the Design of
Statewide Substance Use Disorders Service Systems for Optimal Performance in the Era of Healthcare Reforms.

continued there as an advocate at the Legislature and catalyst in the community on issues related to
prevention, treatment, recovery, homelessness, and drug courts with the goal of reducing the impact of
substance abuse on GA communities. Her work included passage of many bills addressing substance use
disorder solutions as well as securing budget resources. Beginning in 2008 she took over the helm of the
State Associations for Addiction Services (SAAS) as their CEO after serving on its Board since 2000. She
has served on numerous state and federal committees and panels and speaks on the issue in a variety of
settings. Becky received her degrees from the University of GA and GA State University. She grew up in
