NEW YORK, May 22, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- Pearl Health today
released its third annual Top 50 Value-Based Care Thinkers report,
which recognizes healthcare providers, policy makers, academics,
and thinkers across disciplines who are leading the healthcare
system's transition to value-based care.
The leaders in this report are from 50 different organizations,
representing a broad cross-section of US healthcare and offering
diverse perspectives on the challenges in the healthcare system and
the opportunities presented by the transition from volume to
value.
Pearl's Top 50 Value-Based Care Thinkers of 2024 includes quotes
from 30 of this year's honorees, including: Aneesh Chopra, President of CareJourney;
Karen DeSalvo, Chief Health Officer
at Google; Sachin Jain, President
and CEO of SCAN Group and Health Plan; Valinda Rutledge, Executive Vice President at
America's Physician Group; Lacy
Heiberger, Chief of Practice Innovation at UVA Health; and
many others.
"We're humbled and honored that so many healthcare leaders
shared their insights with us," said Michael Kopko, Co-Founder and CEO of Pearl
Health. "We're proud to elevate their voices as they ask hard
questions, challenge outmoded assumptions, and share their ideas
for how to deliver better outcomes for patients, providers, and the
healthcare system at a lower cost."
"I'm deeply honored to join Pearl Health's Top 50 Value-Based
Care Thinkers," said Aneesh Chopra,
President of CareJourney. "Embracing and growing value-based care
is our best opportunity to deliver optimal care for our patients
and for positioning physician networks to act as health information
fiduciaries on their behalf."
"Addressing the physical, emotional and social drivers of health
can be best done with payment and delivery models that incentivize
equitable outcomes and team based care approaches," said
Karen DeSalvo, Chief Health Officer
at Google.
"We have a leadership crisis in American healthcare that
prevents us from moving more aggressively to pursue value-based
care," said Sachin Jain, President
& CEO of SCAN Group & Health Plan. "First, we have to
accept that the goal of value-based care is better health and lower
costs. Second, we have to acknowledge that lower costs should
translate into lower costs for society and lower revenues for our
organizations. And then we have to accept that this is a good
thing!"
"Providing quality patient care is at the heart of value-based
health care," said Valinda Rutledge,
Executive Vice President, Advocacy and Education at America's
Physician Group. "The VBC model allows physicians to care for their
patients in a holistic manner by coordinating their care and
helping them successfully manage their complex health conditions.
As our health care landscape continues evolving, what is best for
patients must always serve as our north star."
"What is so exciting – and challenging – about value-based care
is that it requires leaders to think independently about what is
possible, and then work collaboratively to make that vision a
reality," said Lacy Heiberger, Chief
of Practice Innovation at UVA Health. "It is critical to have the
right data, the right insights and the right partners to tell that
story."
Along with quotes from this year's honorees, Pearl Health's Top
50 Value-Based Care Thinkers report identifies and explains major
themes, news, and trends driving innovation in healthcare in 2024
and beyond.
