The Innovations in Value-Based Care Conference (IVBC) is the nation’s premier convening built for senior leaders who must execute — not debate — value-based care in 2027 and beyond. Hosted in New York City by HSG Global and established in 2023, IVBC is the only conference focused entirely on the how of value-based care: the contracts, network configurations, analytics, and operating decisions that determine whether a value-based strategy actually delivers.

In an environment defined by new mandatory full-risk models, a shifting Medicaid landscape, and downside risk now standard across all business lines, IVBC is the room where the leaders writing the playbook come together.

IVBC 2027 will take place on Thursday, March 25, 2027 in New York City. Full venue details will be shared with registered attendees and announced on this site. Previous editions of IVBC have been held at landmark NYC venues, in keeping with the conference's premium, in-person-only format.

IVBC is built for senior decision-makers carrying real accountability for value-based performance, including:

• Leaders of risk-bearing entities — senior executives of IPAs, CINs, ACOs, MSOs, and physician enterprises.

• Health plan strategists — SVPs and VPs of strategy, network, and provider contracting.

• Population health executives at hospital systems and medical groups accountable for MLR, Stars, MA and Medicaid contract performance.

• Independent physician group leaders, community-based organization executives, and innovators building the future of value-based care.

If you set strategy, sign contracts, build networks, or own P&L responsibility in value-based care, IVBC is built for you.

Most healthcare conferences explain why value-based care matters; IVBC starts from the assumption that you already know. The day is engineered around the how: the contract structures, network configurations, financial models, analytics, and clinical management decisions that determine real performance.

Sessions are practitioner-led by operators with skin in the game — not motivational keynotes. The agenda is calibrated for executives who will be performing under risk in 2027+, not learning about it.

If you’re just looking to learn about the concept or the basics, this isn’t the conference for you.

Every attendee leaves with four things:

• Strategic clarity, not buzzwords — an actionable operating thesis you can defend to your board or executive team the following week.

• Operator-grade playbooks — frameworks, contract structures, financial models, and KPIs you can implement the next day.

• The right room, curated — a density of C-level decision makers no virtual format and no other VBC event replicates.

• The HSG perspective — the working point of view of the consulting firm singularly focused on value-based health and social care.

The day is intentionally engineered to send you home with at least three boardroom-ready decisions.

Given the limited capacity of the conference, we recommend joining the IVBC mailing list and following IVBC on LinkedIn to be notified the moment registration opens and to access the early-bird window.
