MANCHESTER, N.H., April 11, 2017 /PRNewswire/ -- Despite ongoing conversations in Congress to 'repeal and replace' the Affordable Care Act, it seems increasingly clear value-based care is here to stay.

Health plans have been moving aggressively to create value-based care contracts with participating providers. The number of accountable care organizations (ACOs) has increased 13-15 percent in each of the last two years, and today there are more than 935 ACOs with 1,300+ contracts. The success of these health plan-provider partnerships largely depends upon timely, actionable information about patients and populations.
Having learned an electronic health record (EHR) is insufficient to manage and improve the cost and quality of care in value-based relationship, the savviest physician practices are asking their health plan partners 11 key questions about their reporting tools, including:
- Does the health plan reporting tool automatically push notifications into my practice's EHR?
- Does the reporting tool tell me aggregate contractual performance-to-date on quality metrics like HEDIS® and Medicare Star ratings, as well as identify which patients still have open quality opportunities?
- How does the reporting tool help me identify which of my patients are experiencing rising risk?
