Value Based Health Care in Action: Enhancing Patient Outcomes and Managing Costs
This panel will discuss practical implementation of Value Based Health Care (VBHC) programs, rather than only the theory behind it. What can you do to ensure you and your organization are aware of, and leveraging, this fundamental paradigm shift in health care delivery? Prioritizing the patient as the center of the health care equation is arguably the core reason VBHC is becoming the norm for improving health care systems. It involves measuring outcomes that matter to patients and total costs of delivering those outcomes. This panel will discuss case studies from the US and Europe and examine these core principles from an international perspective. Key topics for discussion include:

• Evidence requirements for VBHC implementation
• Examples of where and why a detailed understand of the patient pathway is crucial
• Pragmatic examples of where VBHC has been implemented
• Key challenges that arise when implementing VBHC
• Suggestions for overcoming these challenges
