value-based care
Value-based care is a healthcare delivery model that focuses on providing high-quality services while controlling costs. In this approach, healthcare providers are rewarded for the health outcomes of their patients rather than the number of services they deliver. This encourages doctors and hospitals to prioritize effective treatments and preventive care, ultimately improving patient health.
Under value-based care, providers often collaborate to create comprehensive care plans that address patients' needs holistically. This model aims to enhance patient satisfaction and reduce unnecessary procedures, leading to better overall health outcomes. Key components include patient engagement, care coordination, and performance measurement.
