#98: Simplifying Value-Based Care with Kyle Swarts and Dr. Matt Lambert

Health systems have been working hard to lay the foundation for taking on a larger case mix of value-based contracts. 75% of health systems surveyed said they are ready to accept downside risk in the next two years, up from 42% in 2015. As health systems are discovering, value-based care reimbursement is more complicated and requires a new level of specificity in documentation. The question is, are health systems really ready to take on downside risk while continuing to manage FFS contracts?   Today we have Kyle Swarts, Chief Growth Officer, and Matt Lambert, MD, Chief Medical Officer from TrustHealthcare to help us answer that question. We discuss challenges and opportunities facing health systems as they embrace the shift to value. Enjoy!
