In their new Forefront article, R. Shawn Martin and Farzad Mostashari of the American Academy of Family Physicians and Aledade, Inc. argue that increased investment in primary care coupled with financial models that provide greater flexibility and enhanced accountability ultimately improve health outcomes, lower costs, and improve access. "The health care landscape looks vastly different than it did a few years ago. Despite seemingly insurmountable challenges such as consolidation, staffing shortages, and numerous public health threats, primary care is confronting these shifts head-on while continuing to be a pillar of unwavering support in our health care system. The road ahead is bright, especially when we look at the innovative ways practices are caring for patients and serving their communities." Read the full article here: https://bit.ly/3vzpVXK

As I continue to dive deep into the U.S. health insurance and delivery landscape, it becomes increasingly clear that value-based care models offer the most promising solution to the numerous challenges posed by fee-for-service models. By aligning incentives with standards of care and patient outcomes, value-based care holds the potential to yield great results, and Oak Street Health is doing a good one in this regard. The emphasis on integrating community-focused initiatives and behavioral health into its core operations resonates deeply with my thoughts about addressing the urgent needs of the health system, particularly in serving the most vulnerable populations. The strategic partnership with CVS Health further underscores the importance of leveraging impactful collaborations that maximize individual corporate strengths to achieve healthcare objectives. Kudos Marisa Rogers MD, MPH and the team leading this great work.

Today NAACOS' Board Member and Policy Committee Chair, Stephen W. Nuckolls testified before the U.S. House Committee on Ways & Means Health Subcommittee during the hearing, "Improving Value-Based Care for Patients and Providers." Mr. Nuckolls emphasized the importance of appropriately designed financial benchmarks and aligned incentives in sustaining the transition to value. "It is critical that we ensure that ACOs have fair and accurate benchmarks so that providers do not have to face the tough decision to leave a program in which they were previously successful. The savings achieved in these models directly impact patient care by expanding care teams, providing additional beneficiary services that are not billed to Medicare, ensuring provider retention with enhanced provider payment, and investing in technology or other services that enable care coordination and population health management." Read the full written statement for the record here: https://lnkd.in/ejDhXsAX We appreciate the Committee's attention to these important issues. Our #healthcare system is in crisis and #valuebasedcare offers opportunities to improve quality of care for patients, reduce total health costs, and better support clinicians in the practice of medicine.
