Promising Partnerships: Tales of a Successful VBP Innovation
One of the biggest barriers to treatment is the complexity of the health care system and the fact that different health care entities rarely work together in a meaningful way. In 2017, a major healthcare system, leading behavioral health agency and prominent health plan payor came together to form an exciting value based partnership that was aimed at offering a high level of engagement and coordination to support individuals who had previously made extensive use of emergency and inpatient-level behavioral health and physical health services.
Come learn about how they collaborated to create one consolidated pathway that successfully addressed the physical, behavioral and psychosocial challenges faced by the HARP members they served, while achieving $1.3 million in shared Medicaid savings.
