TRENDWATCH – Hospital and Health Systems Prepare for a Value-driven Future
Please read the article Hospital and Health Systems Prepare for a Value-driven Future by American Hospital Association.
After reading the article please answer the three questions listed on page 10 under Policy Questions.
Your response to each question should be between 200-250 words.
Make sure that you cite any sources used adequately with APA.
The questions are:
1. How can federal and state policies drive alignment across public and private VBP efforts to reduce challenges associated with managing many different forms of value- based payment?
2. What financial mechanisms should the federal and state governments make available to support providers in the transition to VBP?
3. Are there instances — for example, in sparsely populated regions — in which VBP is not appropriate?
