ARIZONA-When the Managed Care Executive Group met last week and discussed the top 10 issues that health plans will face in 2011. The forum, in its 22nd year, focused on health care retail, technology, payment reform — and its top-10 list.

9) Reform uncertainties
10) Payer/provider interoperability
