The transition to Value-Based Payment (VBP) represents a multifaceted process, encompassing significant system-level adjustments in healthcare delivery and reimbursement. Effectively implementing these changes requires a methodical and developmental approach. To facilitate this transition, a comprehensive toolkit has been designed, empowering healthcare providers to evaluate their existing readiness and access resources essential for enhancing their capabilities to operate within a value-based payment framework. In this webinar, we will introduce providers to this invaluable toolkit and guide them on how to navigate it seamlessly.

CMS has signaled its intent to move from strict fee-for-service reimbursement to value-based payment for Medicaid as it has been actively doing for Medicare over the past decade. A few FQHCs are pursuing advanced alternative payment models on their own but most are choosing to clinically integrate with others, especially other FQHCs. This session will share national experiences from these initiatives and provide a framework for evaluating strategic options for DC FQHCs to progress in their pursuit of advanced alternative payment models.

Advances in digital technologies and data analytics have created unparalleled opportunities to assess health data accelerating the ability of science to understand and contribute to improved health behavior and health outcomes. Additionally, behavioral health in the United States is being challenged to address persistent health inequities while improving the quality and value of the care delivered. As regulators, payors, and policies push behavioral health toward data-driven performance, the pressure for behavioral health providers to measure and monitor outcomes increases. This training will introduce providers to the key facets of using data to drive performance including metric selection, diagnosing performance issues and acting on data, driving innovation, and making data analytics a central part of the behavioral health quality strategy.
This session will provide an orientation to quality initiatives implemented by MCOs in their managed care contracts. The session will explain the importance of these quality initiatives, the associated performance measurement reporting, and the contract terms that implement those quality initiatives. In addition, participants will be introduced to the VBP pathway so that regardless of current state of readiness, participants can understand the expectations of quality and be prepared to meaningfully assess these expectations in a VBP contract.
