Value Based Design
3 likes707 views
The document summarizes findings from a study conducted by the Center for Health Value Innovation on the use of value-based designs by over 100 companies. It finds that most successful value-based designs focus on prevention and wellness, use incentives and regular communication to drive behavior change and outcomes, and produce sustainable cost savings without changes during economic downturns. Alignment of incentives and messaging between plans, providers, and consumers is also key to behavior change and reducing healthcare costs long-term.

- 9. What We Now Know… No VBD succeeds without a primary focus on prevention and wellness All successful adoptions and accelerations of VBD are linked to the level/timing of communications And no one succeeds when only communicating 1 time per year Acceleration occurs when aligned incentives drive outcomes This includes patient-centered coordinated care This includes use of community-based assets This includes communication no less than quarterly to keep stickiness of behavior change across all stakeholders Sustainable and measurable value occurs across silos, into the community (when providers achieve improvement in health and financial outcomes) and into families ©VBHEALTH.ORG April-May 2010 9
