Today’s existing healthcare silos can be costly, both financially and in the quality of the care that is being delivered. The recent shifts in clinical and care coordination models driven by various value-based care initiatives require a more collaborative approach to care across the continuum.
Technology makes it easier to adopt practices and workflows that make providing care more unified, effective and efficient. Without it, organizations experience operational inconsistencies and inefficiencies that can come with a paper-based system, such as disconnected manual processes, human error and duplicative testing. All of these can lead to high costs and decreased satisfaction among clinicians and patients alike.
But what if your organization already has technology in place, such as an electronic health record (EHR)? Is this simply all that is needed for your organization to thrive in a value-based care world? Or, does it take more than an EHR? Today’s most successful providers can’t claim their success without connectivity and interoperability between themselves and partner providers across health systems and ambulatory provider networks. Your technology needs to smoothly facilitate care collaboration and coordination between all settings of healthcare.
Adopting integrated technology is essential to bridge any gaps that occur as individuals traverse care settings. When looking to adopt technology solutions, providers should look for key capabilities such as:
Having the right technology in place can allow healthcare providers to embrace the power of networks so individuals can receive the best, most cost-effective care possible.

In today's rapidly evolving healthcare landscape, managing the cost of care and improving patient outcomes are crucial priorities. To address these challenges, value-based reimbursement has emerged as a widely embraced approach. This system focuses on optimizing healthcare services while managing expenses. At the core of this strategy lies value-based contracting, a payment model that aims to align provider reimbursement with the outcomes achieved by patients. By incentivizing quality care and efficient resource utilization, value-based contracting promotes a more coordinated and effective healthcare system.
