Expanding the Role of Interpreters in a Value-Based System

Live Learning Event: Tuesday, June 19, 2018  |  1:00 - 1:30 p.m. EST

What if clinicians could count on interpreters not only to translate the medical visit, but to also walk  the patient to the front desk—in fact, what about all the way to the pharmacy? Or to call the patient at home to help organize getting to a specialist visit? This might seem well beyond the scope of an interpreter’s job. However, the dual-role of interpreter/health navigator is one approach that is gaining traction as healthcare organizations restructure their delivery mechanisms to improve value for patients, particularly vulnerable populations at greater risk for adverse health events, like those who are limited English proficient (LEP).

This 30-minute online event will cover:

  • Key challenges facing LEP individuals in healthcare settings
  • How systems can adapt to reduce risk and improve care for LEP individuals
  • How expanding the role of interpreters can provide additional value
