Value-based Care means
better health, better care
and lower costs.
Placing greater emphasis on value in health
care is proving successful for everyone who
touches the health care system, including
consumers, care providers, and all types of plan
sponsors, from private employers to state and
federal programs.

and individual Results
Driving clear,
measurable
change.
For employers and individuals, the Value-based Care approach offers real
results. Care providers are helping patients get ahead of conditions and
better manage medical issues. Their patients spend more time with primary
care providers (PCPs) and less time in the ER or in the hospital. These
changes, in turn, translate into better value for employers looking for the
best care plans for their employees.
