Covered California's best-in-class, all star research team is at it again! woot woot Marina Lovchikova! With increased affordability from the American Rescue Plan Act, the team conducted an RCT of an email nudge related to plan choice. The nudge caused a, statistically significant, 74% increase in plan switching and an increase in practitioner visits. While studies have proven that plans with high out of pocket costs get in the way of health, this study proves the inverse...that more affordable health care, leads to an increase in health care services. https://lnkd.in/gnuUbNvH

Respondents in the Milken Institute's study ranked preventive care, increasing access to primary care, and focusing on whole-person health as the top three tenets of accountable care. At CareAllies I see our physician partners achieve all three. #Valuebasedcare enables more preventive care, increases access to primary care and enables more whole- person health by empowering practices to better address multiple chronic conditions and #SDOH.

NAACOs President and CEO Clif Gaus says it well: “In the last decade, value-based care has grown from almost nothing to undeniably significant aspect of our health system.” While its growth hasn't necessarily been rapid, it has certainly been consistent due to its goals and aims, including (but certainly not limited to: 🔹 Enhancing the patient experience. 🔹 Improving population health. 🔹 Reducing costs. VBC is constantly growing and showing no sign of stopping. #ValueBasedCare #VBC #Healthcare

Most value-based care conversations focus on facilitating the payment mechanism, which is important, but Rob Allen, president and CEO of Intermountain Health, wants to talk more about alignment. When anyone asks him about value-based care, he responds: "What value for whom? What value are we creating and for whom are we creating it?" "'As we answer those questions, I think we truly can create a value model that serves our communities, and serves them well" #valuebasedcare #populationhealth #communityhealth #upstreamvalue
