Value-Based and Risk Transfer Payment Arrangements

Achieving financial success with exceptional patient care outcomes.

As financial and market pressures continue to push the industry towards value-based payments, having the right payment arrangements that appropriately transfer risk across the network becomes not only crucial, but a tenet to your long-term success in a risk bearing environment.

Understanding your high- cost drivers, stratifying them by service categories and accurately identifying the appropriate cost-containment strategies is difficult at best. Add the complexities of modeling the right risk stratification for your network, and the challenge can seem insurmountable.
