The CMS Innovation Center launched a new Behavioral Health Model earlier this year, marking a significant step forward in advancing integration in behavioral health. The new model aims to bridge the gap between physical and behavioral health. This is a testament to the ongoing efforts to prioritize patient-centered, whole person care in our healthcare system.

Good news in the shift to value-based care. According to a recent report by the Milken Institute, one in three employers are integrating value-based care into their employer-sponsored insurance. The specific benefits they are looking to improve over the next few years include mental health resources and virtual primary care and caregiver resources. https://lnkd.in/gX2uKMPy #ValueBasedCare #EmployeeBenefits #Healthcare

A new study by the Congressional Budget Office (CBO) shows that physician-led ACOs are the most effective at reducing healthcare costs. According to the report, Medicare ACOs with a large number of primary care physicians (PCPs), advanced primary care practices, or patient-centered medical homes were more likely to produce the largest savings due to PCPs’ ability to manage chronic conditions and provide preventive screenings. https://lnkd.in/eBBxVgAb #ACO #Healthcare #Affordability

Our Chief Medical Officer, Henish A. Bhansali, MD, FACP, shares highlights from his panel session at the National Association of ACOs (NAACOS) Spring Conference below. Read his thoughts on why a team-based approach and a focus on social drivers of health are critical to creating value. #NAACOS #ValueBasedCare #PrimaryCare

I love the chance to spend time with healthcare’s changemakers — the people doing the work to make value-based care a success. Last week’s National Association of ACOs (NAACOS) conference let me do just that. I shared the stage with Wilson Gabbard, Eric Cragun, Tori Bratcher and Jennifer (Albee) Houlihan, MSP to talk about how our organizations are translating care models from Medicare Advantage to MSSP, REACH, and other ACO models. The common thread that became clear between our presentations was the importance of simplifying the care model for PCPs, allowing them to be payer-agnostic and treat patients in the same way. What also became clear was that although metrics and expectations for separate payors (Medicare vs. Medicaid) or programs (Medicare Advantage vs. ACO REACH vs. MSSP) may be different, they are applicable across populations and programs to deliver better outcomes for all patients. Administratively, there are meaningful differences between Medicare Advantage, MSSP and REACH ACO contracts. But unifying the care model across all government programs leads to population-level outcome and patient experience improvements while decreasing costs – i.e., it generates value. When I practiced medicine at Oak Street Health, most of our patients were in Medicare Advantage. So, we did not have the complexities of variable contracts and plans; it was ideal. Organizations that work to achieve that level of synergy across varying contracts will likely experience economies of scale in operations, aligned PCP buy-in and clinical care, and ultimately better patient outcomes. How do those outcomes come about? We know that more than half of what impacts patients’ outcomes are social drivers of health and their physical environment. The other big driver is health behaviors outside of direct healthcare delivery. So, a team-based approach between providers and the clinical workforce for a care model that involves care managers, social workers, and other non-clinical, patient-facing roles is imperative to creating value. The other issue, however, is that many of us don’t learn how to effectively collaborate with these professionals in our medical education – either in medical school or residency. But, they are foundational in the care model to appropriately care for patients, make their lives better, and as a result, bend the cost curve. At Medical Home Network (MHN), for instance, we help fund FQHCs in our ACOs to hire and train these indispensable care team members. I’m still riding a high from our conversation last week, and already looking forward to the next time NAACOS brings us together again! #NAACOS #NAACOS24 #NAACOS2024 #ACO #FQHCS #ValueBasedCare #CommunityHealth
