Value-Based Care Consulting for Health Plans
Value-Based Care Consulting for Health Plans
The adoption of value-based care (VBC) consulting for health plans can create transformational impacts, but require significant changes to provider relationship models, care delivery and payment models, increased collaboration among internal divisions and new capabilities across people, process and technology. Baker Tilly can help your organization navigate the complexities of value-based care model adoption and scale to achieve improved health outcomes, quality of care and cost-efficiency.
Advantages of adopting value-based care programs
Improve quality of care
The prioritization of value-based care programs incentivizes healthcare providers to focus on member outcomes rather than the volume of services rendered. These programs can emphasize preventive care, increasingly coordinated treatment and chronic disease management, ultimately leading to care delivered improving member health outcomes.
Align provider incentives
Value-based care programs shift provider financial incentives away from volume of services delivered to those that emphasize rewards for high-quality and cost-efficient care to members.
Enhance provider relationships
Fostering increased collaboration and communication with healthcare providers is crucial to the success of value-based care programs. Many electronic health record (EHR) platforms platforms have features such as Epic Payer Platform, Healthy Planet, Compass Rose, Cheers and others, that enable better data integration and timely data exchange between payers and providers, allowing health plans to streamline information sharing, manage risks and take a more coordinated approach to care delivery.
Maximize cost efficiency
When value-based care programs focus on appropriate care delivery in the optimal setting with emphasis on preventative care or chronic disease management, health plans can improve member care outcomes while maximizing cost efficiency by reducing the need for expensive emergency interventions and hospital readmissions.
Improve data-driven decision making
Value-based care relies on robust data analytics to measure outcomes and performance metrics. By leveraging EHR systems, health insurers can strategically improve data management, identify high-performing providers or areas for improvement and ensure that providers have the right information in hand when they’re caring for their patients to ultimately facilitate better care coordination and care delivery to enhance patient outcomes.
Drive innovation
Incentivizing the adoption of new technologies and care models that improve member outcomes can encourage providers to implement advanced data analytics, telehealth and personalized treatment plans, developing continuous improvement and creativity in healthcare delivery.
