If you’re new to Value-based Healthcare, first of all, Wake Up! Where have you been? Just kidding. Even though I’d like to think that the concepts and practice of value-based care (VBC) are well-known to all and practiced diligently by most – VBC as a mode of operation in healthcare delivery that improves outcomes, improves patient and physician experience, improves revenue for physicians, and decreases overall cost of medical care – the realist in me recognizes that’s definitely not the case.
Over the past 40 years, we've seen a large shift in primary care and the United States healthcare system. Unfortunately, the changes have resulted in a very broken system, and we now more than ever see the need to correct the flaws.
