Everybody’s business: value-based healthcare - EHMA Workshop

In recent years value-based care has been seen to provide an effective vehicle to improve health service efficiency with an outcome-based focus. It is a delivery model in which providers are paid based on patient health outcomes. Providers are rewarded when their patients’ health is improved; the effects and incidence of chronic disease decreased; and patients are able to live healthier lives. Such an approach has been creating incentives for health care providers to offer the best care at the lowest cost, resulting in savings in healthcare costs; patients receiving more value for money; and in an increased patients’ quality of care and satisfaction. However, much more remains to be done in terms of large-scale implementation of value-based healthcare and managers can play a key-role in making it happen.

In this executive workshop, we will dive deep into understanding what VBHC is and how health authorities can develop an effective agenda and industry contributes. Why should health systems and organizations drive the value-based revolution, and what should they do to make it happen? From framing the agenda to steering the cultural shift, attendees will be made part of the journey toward value-based healthcare.
