The shift is moving slower than anticipated but roughly 61% of all health care payments are tied to value and quality in some way. Yet even though many providers have experience with risk-based programs, their respective performance on quality, cost reduction and shared savings can vary. This executive dialogue examines the current state of value-based care, the value-based care initiatives providers are prioritizing and best practices to excel in these programs.</p><div class="row">@media (min-width:768px){ .EDsponsorFloat{ float:right; } } @media (max-width:767px){ .EDLinkFloat{ position:relative; left:27%; } .EDsponsorFloat { text-align:center } } <div class="col-sm-6"><a class="btn btn-wide btn-primary EDLinkFloat" href="/system/files/media/file/2022/09/Cerner_HealthFirstModel_exedialogue_Sept2022.pdf" title="Executive Dialogue | Creating a Sustainable Health-First Model with Value-based Care: Strategies and best practices for transitioning to risk-based models" data-view-context="top-level-view">Download the Report</a></div><div class="col-sm-6"><div class="EDsponsorFloat"><strong>Sponsored by: </strong><a href="https://www.cerner.com/solutions/value-based-care" target="_blank" rel="noopener nofollow"><img src="/sites/default/files/2022-09/Cerner_Oracle_logo_834x313.png" alt="Oracle Cerner Logo" width="100%" height="100%"></a></div></div></div></div></div>.sp_CTA5_holder { margin-top:0px; border-bottom: solid 1px #555; padding-bottom: 50px; } .sp_CTA5_holder_last { border-bottom: solid 0px #555; } .sp_CTA5_holder >div{ overflow: auto; } .sp_CTA5_holder ul { list-style: none; /* Remove default bullets */ padding-left: 0px; /*width: calc(100% - 15%);*/ /*margin: 50px auto 0;*/ margin:auto 50px; } .sp_CTA5_holder ul li{ margin-bottom:7px; line-height: 1.5em; font-size:16px; } .sp_CTA5_holder ul li::before { content: " "; font-size: 1em; margin-right: 10px; display: inline-block; height: 12px; background-color: #9d2235; width: 12px; position: relative; top: 0px; -webkit-transform: rotate(45deg); -moz-transform: rotate(45deg); -o-transform: rotate(45deg); } .sp_CTA5_holder ul li{ padding-left:23px; text-indent:-23px; } .body ol>li, .body ul>li{ font-size:16px: } .sp_CTA5_holder h2 { color: #002855; /*! line-height: 2em; */ font-size: 2.15em; margin: 0 0 15px 0; /*! font-size: 30px; */ } .sp_CTA5_holder h3 { /*color: #002855;*/ line-height: 1em; /*font-size: 1.5em;*/ margin-bottom: 25px; margin-top:5px; font-size: 28px; } .sp_CTA5_section{ margin-top: 25px } .sp_CTA5_ImgShadow { /*background-color:green;*/ /* just a visual */ text-align: center } .sp_CTA5_ImgShadow { padding-bottom:75px; /* must match the padding on the img*/ margin: 0px; } .sp_CTA5_ImgShadow img{ width: calc(100% - 35px - 15px); -webkit-box-shadow: 50px -75px 0px 0px rgba(185, 217, 235, 1); -moz-box-shadow: 50px -75px 0px 0px rgba(185, 217, 235, 1); box-shadow: 50px -75px 0px 0px rgba(185, 217, 235, 1); position: relative; top: 75px; max-width: 490px; } @media (max-width:990px){ .sp_CTA5_ImgShadow img{ max-width: 350px;} } @media (max-width:990px){ .sp_CTA5_ImgShadow { padding-bottom:75px; /* must match the padding on the img*/ margin: 0px; margin-right: 40px } } <div class="row spacer sp_CTA5_holder sp_CTA5_holder_last"><div class="col-md-12"><h3>7 Lessons from the Field on Value-based Care</h3><div class="sp_CTA5_section"><ul><li><strong>Data Mining</strong> Getting experience with the value journey helps to know the patient population and the issues around social determinants. It’s an advantage to dig into the data and understand the trends.</li><li><strong>Government Programs</strong> Hospitals and health systems participating in Medicare Advantage and Medicaid accountable care organization (ACO) programs have been able to drive value and savings by reducing admissions and emergency department (ED) utilization.</li><li><strong>Technology</strong> Organizations are deploying technology to streamline care management strategies and care retention strategies for high utilizers or people with complex conditions.</li><li><strong>Determining Success</strong> By using data to identify who’s using services and what the issues are, providers are able to deliver person-centered care and target care coordination to improve outcomes; reduce admissions and ED utilization; and improve health status.</li><li><strong>Capitation Models</strong> It may be time to look at full-risk capitation models to promote the best interests of patients and health outcomes. With a more predictable cash flow, the incentives are to explore preventive care and cost-effective care processes.</li><li><strong>Risk-averse</strong> Risk-based arrangements are a small percentage of value-based care among hospitals. Many providers are engaging with employers in direct contracting and bundled payment arrangements.</li><li><strong>Market Share</strong> Some providers participate in value-based care arrangements to gain market share to get stickier with the consumer and engage patients as a hedge against current competition within their market and as a protection strategy against new entrants.</li></ul></div></div></div><h2>Participants</h2>/* people */ .people { margin-top: 50px;

Castell also will provide digital tools for virtual care, patient experience and social determinants of health, as well as provide access to Intermountain’s latest innovation initiatives.</p> <p>In its first year, the Reimagined Primary Care model has led to:</p> <ul> <li>A 60% cut in Medicare Advantage admissions.</li> <li>25% fewer commercial insurance admissions.</li> <li>A 20% reduction in per member per month costs.</li> <li>Improved patient ratings and physician satisfaction.</li> </ul> <h2>What’s Going On</h2> <p>Intermountain is leveraging its deep knowledge in improving quality, reducing costs and effectively managing downside risk in value-based care programs to improve access. Its leaders say they are shifting to a more community-based mindset and that Castell will provide benefits to adjacent markets in Utah and Nevada. This could help participating providers in these areas to improve efficiency and outcomes and cut costs as they participate in value-based care models.</p> <p>The launch of Castell also is part of a broader trend among some health systems to diversify their business lines outside of reimbursable medical services. These innovators are creating companies in areas like technology, automation, group purchasing and supply chain management. And with the field likely being several years or more away from assuming full risk in value-based payment models, others are stepping up with services to help ease the transition.</p> <p><a href="https://www.fiercehealthcare.com/hospitals-health-systems/providence-st-joseph-health-launches-population-health-company" target="_blank">Providence St. Joseph Health</a>, for instance, earlier this year launched <a href="https://www.ayin.com/" target="_blank">Ayin Health Solutions</a>, a population health company that offers expertise to help payers, providers, employers and government entities reduce costs and improve care in the transition from inpatient to ambulatory care. <a href="https://www.evolenthealth.com/" target="_blank">Evolent Health</a>, an independent company formed by <a href="https://www.upmc.com/" target="_blank">UPMC</a> and <a href="https://www.advisory.com/" target="_blank">The Advisory Board</a> in 2011 to provide an integrated population and health management platform, is a $1 billion company today focusing on helping providers and health plans succeed in value-based care. Among its partners are Banner Health Network, Passport Health Plan, St. Luke’s Health Partners and Deaconess Health System.</p> <h2><img alt="Market Expands for Teaching Value-Based Care Imperatives infographic: 40% of respondents said that a market in which most value-based relationships include both upside and downside risk is 3-5 years away." data-entity-type="file" data-entity-uuid="09353d54-4eb7-4ce0-9cb4-fd2e33794e77" src="/sites/default/files/inline-images/ms_072319_item1_value_care_chart.jpg" width="289" height="244" class="align-right">If You Build It, Will They Come?</h2> <p>Whether these latest business launches will have the staying power of Evolent Health remains to be seen, but many providers are looking for insights and tools as they move deeper into value-based care. However, it could be some time before the bulk of the field assumes full risk in value-based payment models, as a <a href="https://inspire.changehealthcare.com/2019-Industry-Pulse-Whitepaper" target="_blank">HealthCare Executive Group and Change Healthcare survey</a> of health care executives found earlier this year. The <a href="https://www.modernhealthcare.com/payment/docs-taking-full-risk-value-based-care-models-still-years-away" target="_blank">study</a> noted that nearly 40% of respondents said that a market in which most value-based relationships include both upside and downside risk is three to five years off.</p> </div> <div class="col-md-4"> <div class="external-link spacer"><a class="btn btn-wide btn-primary" href="/center/form/innovation-subscription" title="Click here to subscribe to the AHA Center for Health Innovation Market Scan weekly newsletter.">Subscribe to Market Scan</a></div> <p><a href="/center/form/innovation-subscription" title="Read more Market Scan articles."><img alt="Market Scan logo" class="align-center" data-entity- data-entity-type="file" src="/sites/default/files/inline-images/market-scan-logo.jpg" uuid="31df76fd-ac54-49e1-8e7d-dd92814e202c"></a></p> <p><a href="/center" title="Visit the AHA Center for Health Innovation landing page."><img alt="AHA Center for Health Innovation logo" data-entity- data-entity-uuid="7ade6b12-de98-4d0b-965f-a7c99d9463c5" src="/sites/default/files/inline-images/logo-aha-innovation-center-color-sm.jpg" type="file"></a></p> </div> </div> </div> Tue, 23 Jul 2019 14:33:45 -0500 Risk-based Reimbursement /aha-center-health-innovation-market-scan/2019-05-21-full-speed-ahead-risk-based-contracts-maybe-not .field_featured_image { position: absolute; overflow: hidden; clip: rect(0 0 0 0); height: 1px; width: 1px; margin: -1px; padding: 0; border: 0; } .featured-image{ position: absolute; overflow: hidden; clip: rect(0 0 0 0); height: 1px; width: 1px; margin: -1px; padding: 0; border: 0; } <div class="container row"> <div class="row"> <div class="col-md-8"> <p><img alt="Market Scan Full speed ahead for risk-based contracts?

But that reality may not materialize as quickly as some envision, based on results of the <a href="https://inspire.changehealthcare.com/2019-Industry-Pulse-Whitepaper" target="_blank">9th Annual Industry Pulse Survey</a> recently released by <a href="https://www.changehealthcare.com/" target="_blank">Change Healthcare</a> and the <a href="https://hceg.org/" target="_blank">HealthCare Executive Group</a>.</p> <p>The survey found that nearly two-thirds of responding hospital leaders, third-party administrators, health plan executives, academics and other stakeholders believe that VBC won’t be dominant for another three to five years or more. And 6 percent believe that it will never happen.</p> <p>What’s hindering progress? Respondents cited obstacles like limitations in data sharing; no agreement on outcome measures; and a lack of incentives for payer and providers to work together. All of this has left health care leaders feeling unable to tackle the challenges of implementing and managing these contracts, the report concludes.</p> <p><img alt="Chart: When to you expect the majority of value-based relationships within the health care market to contain both upside and downside risk?" data-entity-type="file" data-entity-uuid="cde4e18f-aa53-4743-8917-4541127cc0b2" src="/sites/default/files/inline-images/ms_052119_item1_chart-03_v2.jpg" width="333" height="333" class="align-right">Making rapid change on such a large scale also may be an impediment, with the report noting that VBC will require major changes in business models — beyond simply operationalizing the steps from concept to contract to claims processing. A new AHA Market Insights report <a href="/center/emerging-issues/market-insights/evolving-care-models">Evolving Models of Care</a> delves much deeper into the successes and challenges providers face in aligning care delivery models with emerging payment models.</p> <p>The Pulse Survey also explored ways that payers can more effectively support providers in facilitating high-value care. Standardizing quality and outcome measures was the most common suggestion, cited by 28 percent of the respondents, followed by co-developing payer-provider risk-management programs (22.6 percent), sharing performance data (14 percent) and co-developing bundled payments around episodes of care. ms_052119_item1_chart-03_v2.jpg</p> <p>Pulse Survey respondents plan to take actions within 12 months to address nonmedical barriers to care. These are the top five:</p> <ul> <li><strong>Care coordination:</strong> Slightly less than two-thirds of respondents will work to better coordinate care.</li> <li><strong>Transportation:</strong> Nearly 40 percent of organizations plan to make it easier for patients to get to their appointments. A growing number of providers nationally are working with Lyft and Uber to transport patients to doctor visits and hospitals, helping to avoid the costs of delayed or missed care.</li> <li><strong>Food insecurity/access:</strong> More than one in four respondents will address this social determinant of health. App-based food delivery services are a promising tool to fight the health hazards of food insecurity.</li> <li><strong>Benefits coordination:</strong> Twenty-three percent will work to improve benefits coordination to help qualified patients receive public assistance.</li> <li><strong>Social isolation:</strong> Nearly one in five respondents will address this area of care, which is gaining attention, because loneliness and isolation can exacerbate health problems, increase mortality and lead to higher costs.</li> </ul> </div> <div class="col-md-4"> <div class="external-link spacer"><a class="btn btn-wide btn-primary" href="/center/form/innovation-subscription" title="Click here to subscribe to the AHA Center for Health Innovation Market Scan weekly newsletter.">Subscribe to Market Scan</a></div> <p><a href="/type/aha-center-health-innovation-market-scan" title="Read more Market Scan articles."><img alt="Market Scan logo" class="align-center" data-entity- data-entity-type="file" src="/sites/default/files/inline-images/market-scan-logo.jpg" uuid="31df76fd-ac54-49e1-8e7d-dd92814e202c"></a></p> <p><a href="/center" title="Visit the AHA Center for Health Innovation landing page."><img alt="AHA Center for Health Innovation logo" data-entity- data-entity-uuid="7ade6b12-de98-4d0b-965f-a7c99d9463c5" src="/sites/default/files/inline-images/logo-aha-innovation-center-color-sm.jpg" type="file"></a></p> </div> </div> </div> Tue, 21 May 2019 14:01:33 -0500 Risk-based Reimbursement /aha-center-health-innovation-market-scan/2019-04-08-some-health-care-startups-require-performance .field_featured_image { position: absolute; overflow: hidden; clip: rect(0 0 0 0); height: 1px; width: 1px; margin: -1px; padding: 0; border: 0; } .featured-image{ position: absolute; overflow: hidden; clip: rect(0 0 0 0); height: 1px; width: 1px; margin: -1px; padding: 0; border: 0; } <div class="container row"> <div class="row"> <div class="col-md-8"> <p><img alt="Virta Health app" data-entity-type="file" data-entity-uuid="a18c2f8f-2c48-416e-a1ec-cb7914a9e6cd" src="/sites/default/files/inline-images/ms_040919_item3_startups_virta_190.jpg" width="190" height="127" class="align-right">Even as many hospitals and health care systems continue to evaluate whether to participate in risk-based reimbursement models, some health care startups are betting their futures on it.</p> <p>A number of startup companies like <a href="https://www.virtahealth.com/" target="_blank">Virta Health</a>, which provides type 2 diabetes patients with coaching and tracking services, have begun requiring performance-based contracts. The company’s customers, which include insurers and self-insured employers, pay only for the patients whose outcomes are improved, <a href="https://www.forbes.com/sites/elliekincaid/2019/04/01/better-diabetes-care-healthcare-startups-say-theyll-get-paid-when-patients-get-better/?ss=healthcare#2b3a051020c2" target="_blank">according to Forbes</a>.</p> <p><a href="https://www.crickethealth.com/" target="_blank">Cricket Health</a>, which has raised more than $25 million from investors including Cigna and First Round Capital, helps patients with chronic kidney disease to put off the need for expensive dialysis. Cricket staff (a mix of social workers and clinicians) review the medical records of insurers’ patients to spot those at risk for developing chronic kidney disease. They also educate patients about how to get on a kidney transplant list and the benefits of in-home dialysis vs. a clinic setting, and help them get the treatment they need to stay healthy. The lower the cost of medical care needed, the more money Cricket receives.</p> <p><a href="https://onduo.com/" target="_blank">Onduo</a>, a joint venture in diabetes care from the drugmaker Sanofi and Verily, the life sciences company from Google’s parent company Alphabet, is taking its pay-for-performance commitment a step further.

Earlier this year, Walgreens began offering its employees with type 2 diabetes Onduo’s suite of connected glucometers, software that tracks trends in the numbers and specialists available via telemedicine. Other customers include Emory Healthcare in Atlanta and Blue Cross Blue Shield insurance plans in Arkansas, South Carolina and Georgia.</p> </div> <div class="col-md-4"> <div class="external-link spacer"><a class="btn btn-wide btn-primary" href="/center/form/innovation-subscription" title="Click here to subscribe to the AHA Center for Health Innovation Market Scan weekly newsletter.">Subscribe to Market Scan</a></div> <p><a href="/type/aha-center-health-innovation-market-scan" title="Read more Market Scan articles."><img alt="Market Scan logo" class="align-center" data-entity- data-entity-type="file" src="/sites/default/files/inline-images/market-scan-logo.jpg" uuid="31df76fd-ac54-49e1-8e7d-dd92814e202c"></a></p> <p><a href="/center" title="Visit the AHA Center for Health Innovation landing page."><img alt="AHA Center for Health Innovation logo" data-entity- data-entity-uuid="7ade6b12-de98-4d0b-965f-a7c99d9463c5" src="/sites/default/files/inline-images/logo-aha-innovation-center-color-sm.jpg" type="file"></a></p> </div> </div> </div> Mon, 08 Apr 2019 09:45:20 -0500 Risk-based Reimbursement
