Specialty Clinics: Integral to the Value-Based Care Ecosystem

Value-Based Care Insights New Episode NOW On-Demand

Certain specialties, such as primary care, are generally better positioned to shift to value-based care. Specialists, particularly cardiologists, encounter challenges when transitioning from fee-for-service to fee-for-value. To succeed in this shift, they must rethink their approach to patient care. On this episode Dan sits down with Dr. Sameer Sheth, a board-certified cardiologist who helps specialists transition to value-based care by focusing on a patient-centric approach to medicine. Gain insight into the healthcare provider ecosystem and how data and tools, patient engagement, and communication all support the shift from volume-based to value-based care.

Key Takeaways:

  • The transition from focusing on patient volume to prioritizing patient outcomes necessitates the adoption of technologically advanced, data-driven, and team-based care approaches.
  • For specialists, such as cardiologists, value-based care involves taking responsibility for the overall health of a patient, rather than just focusing on their specific area of expertise.
  • High-quality data from multiple sources helps identify and address challenges, demonstrating the effectiveness of value-based care in improving a healthcare organization’s performance.
