Is the Risk Worth the Reward? Critical Factors to Consider for Your Value-based Care Strategy

Provider-Sponsored Health Plans (PSHPs) have long been viewed as the ultimate endpoint for value-based health care models. With health care reform ushering in a clear shift towards value, the industry has experienced a renewed interest in PSHPs. The changing dynamics of the US health care delivery system – new payment models, declining reimbursement and the expansion of government programs – are leading many providers to believe that formerly insurmountable challenges are more achievable than ever before. With key industry reports like Standard & Poor giving PSHPs a positive outlook, the looming question is no longer “when” to launch a PSHP, but “how”?

Join us for a complimentary webinar that answers the following questions and more:

• What are the benefits of a PSHP?
• How is launching a PSHP now different than in the 1990s?
• What options do I have when it comes to ownership vs. partnership?
• What are the critical factors that most health systems fail to consider?
