Value-Based Care
Preparing for the Shift
How does value-based care impact hospital teams and finance leaders?
U.S. healthcare is shifting toward fee-for-value, requiring providers to know the true cost of care
While the U.S. healthcare industry has long utilized fee-for-service care, with providers pushing for high volumes and resource utilization, new legislature and payment models are causing a shift toward value-based care.
For providers, adopting value-based care means participating in new payment models, such as shared risk, global capitation, bundles or episodes of care, and shared savings models. To safely adopt these new payment structures, health systems and hospitals need to understand their costs.
Organizations will need to determine how they will participate in value-based care contracts, define and analyze their patient episodes across the continuum, and minimize variations in cost of care.
How can I prepare for value-based care?
