Chronic Disease Is Healthcare's Rising-Risk6/17/2016
The move to value based care is no longer a question of if or when, it’s now. As health systems prepare for impending change in their revenue, they must decide if they are going to lead, follow or resist the transformation at their own peril.

New leadership teams, focused on Population Health Management (PHM) are essential to success under new alternative payment models that reward maintaining a healthy population. As a competitive business necessity, health systems must continue the acquisition of value-based care payer contracts. Those contracts also include the acquisition of significant financial risk. PHM’s task is to identify, track and manage the real drivers of costs across their populations and in doing so, manage the risk.

Though cultural anthropology dubs this ability to acclimate “biological plasticity,” actor Clint Eastwood, as a Marine in a 1980s war film, puts it more succinctly: “You adapt. You overcome. You improvise.”
