Analytics and Value Creation
There is no clear consensus among providers on what constitutes quality Quality is relative among payers Recipient expectations of quality vary by factors like: Age Gender General Health Severity of illness
Cost should be clear: For all services provided For full episodes of care Per all care providers Per all payers
Challenges Creating Value
Payers have overlapping but not identical interests in the quality and the price of services provided.
Providers have not geared themselves, nor they are reimbursed to produce Value, (new, more, or better value;) rather, they are paid for the volume of services Provided
Value Creation Requires: Reorientation of healthcare providers around quality and cost effectiveness: Commitment to ongoing, real-time learning Reliable and automated bi-directional information. Awareness of effective and waste expenditure. Optimized allocation and efficient use of resources Make healthcare accessible and affordable Promote patient engagement Respect patient as a person, not as a case Safeguard patient from treatment caused injury and infection. Get visible progress best practice outcome
