Value Based Care Classic Definition: Value-based care is a type of payment model that pays doctors and hospitals for treating patients in the right place, at the right time and with just the right amount of care. You can look at it as a financial incentive to motivate healthcare providers to meet specific performance measures related to the quality and efficiency of the process. The same way, it penalizes weaker experiences, such as medical errors. The concept is often counter-intuitive.

Modern Circumstance: As healthcare costs continue to rise, value-based care has been growing in popularity compared to the traditional fee-for-service method.

Think: HMOs, PPOs, capitation payments and Medicare Advantage [Part C].

Paradox Examples:

  • Payment: A physician paid through fee-for-service compensation might like to see a packed medical office waiting room. More patients and services equate to higher pay. But, the same doctor paid through a VBC contract might wish to see an emptier waiting room as s/he will get the exact same daily pay for seeing fewer patients and working much less.
  • Prospectivity: Traditional Fee-for-Service medicine treats sick patients. VBC medicine seeks to keep patients healthy and out of the doctor’s office.

Value-based payment (VBP) structures have the potential to reduce health disparities and, during the pandemic, health care organizations with VBP models have had greater flexibility to effectively pivot their care delivery.

This Health Affairs Blog post outlines three strategies for payers and providers to embrace health equity in VBP design and implementation.

Letters to Trump – Continue Focus on Value-Based Payment

Two Letters to Trump from Healthcare Leaders – Continue Focus on Value-Based Payment

By Robert James Cimasi MHA CMP™

Health Capital Consultants, Inc

                                             ***

In December 2016 and January 2017, over 100 leading healthcare organizations sent two letters to President Donald Trump and Vice President Michael Pence lobbying the Trump Administration to continue the shift in healthcare reimbursement from volume-based to value-based payment models.
***
The expansion of the number and scope of value-based reimbursement programs following the 2010 passage of the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act (ACA) is in keeping with the national strategy regarding healthcare reimbursement in the landmark legislation; most notably the fourth priority established by the ACA, i.e., to “…improve Federal payment policy to emphasize quality and efficiency…
***
However, in light of the criticism of many in the Trump Administration regarding value-based reimbursement models, most notably Tom Price, M.D., the Secretary of the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS), many healthcare delivery organizations felt compelled to advocate for continued implementation of such payment systems, and acted by sending the above referred letters to the new administration.
***
Assessment

This Health Capital Topics article summarizes the contents of those two letters received by the Trump Administration, and discusses how this advocacy fits into the current uncertainty surrounding healthcare reform. (Read more…)
