by Fred Pennic 01/23/2023 Leave a Comment

Executive Revenue Cycle Predictions/Trends

Why Health Systems Need a New Transition Strategy to APMs

There is an adage that change in healthcare moves at the speed of tectonic plates.  The slow adoption of Alternative Payment Models (APMs), the central feature of value-based care, is a good example of constraint despite immense pressure to control costs.

However,

Medsphere CEO Talks Affordable Healthcare IT and Future of EHRs

In the late 1940s, the United Kingdom was busily reassembling country and what remained of the empire in the aftermath of World War II. Among many revelations, the war had convinced Britain’s leaders of the need to provide healthcare for all in the event of calamity upending the basic functions of a civilized society.

Navigating Healthcare’s Uncertain Future: Three Data-Driven Approaches for Payers

by Sean Walker, Partner at The Bowdoin Group, Josh Gottlieb (Managing Director, Digital Health) at The Bowdoin Group, and Michelle Mattson-Hamilton, Associate Principal at ST Advisors 10/24/2019 Leave a Comment

After years of talk, fee-for-service payment models are finally being challenged in a real way. With value-based care, providers are reimbursed based on patient health outcomes rather than the number of patients they see, which has begun to pass the burden of cost from insurers and employers to providers and patients. Fundamentally, value-based care requires vendors as well as providers to operate differently, but new revenue models and a new approach to hiring deserve special consideration. In
