The COVID-19 pandemic forced health care providers nationwide to adopt clinical practices that align with value-based care, and CMS has made value-based care a priority stating that it is integral to solving physician burnout, health inequities, and lack of affordability. Yet many providers remain hesitant to accelerate their participation in value-based care. Providers remain unwilling to accept downstream risk, fearing the impact on revenue stability and sustainability. In addition, they are concerned about unpredictable effects on revenue, where long payment cycles and annual incentives don’t effectively address the costly nature of managing the care. Finally, and perhaps the biggest barrier is the lack of upfront capital to secure the care team needed to manage the care. Especially now, staffing shortages for wrap-around care, including registered nurses, behavioral health providers, and pharmacists, make it difficult. In this session, we’ll discuss the barriers but, most importantly, the programs innovative healthcare providers are using to thrive in today’s environment through investment, patient engagement, regulations, and partnerships.

• Create stable revenue streams and real-time, actionable patient-level data to create efficiencies that lead to better health outcomes and experiences 
• Organize multi-disciplinary teams around the patient’s medical condition to allow clinicians to practice at the top of their license
•  Implement human-centered tech to free up the valuable time we need to build the doctor-patient relationship
