President & CEO | Board Member | Physician | Digital Health Entrepreneur | Innovating at the intersection of value-based care and health equity
Humana is helping create a health care ecosystem where value-based care is the new standard of care. In 2022, 70% of their Medicare Advantage plan members were aligned with a value-based care provider. How'd that go? My The George Washington University colleague Kate Goodrich put it this way: "The data are clear. Value-based care works." I couldn't agree more. Humana's Medicare Advantage beneficiaries benefitted: ✅ Higher preventive screening rates ✅ Increased medication adherence ✅ Improved experiences ✅ 13% fewer ED visits The value-based care providers in their networks benefitted: ✅ They earned 3.4x the Medicare physician fee schedule ✅ They received a greater share of the overall health care dollar in medical claims and capitation, bonus, and surplus payments Humana itself benefitted: ✅ They generated $8 billion in cost savings ✅ They experienced improved compliance with HEDIS performance measures ✅ They lowered disparity scores on their Medicaid plans Amazing things happen when we align incentives behind patient health. Kudos to Kate and the team at Humana for taking this leap and reaping such incredible rewards for everyone involved.
