Abstract
Health care payment models that reward value over volume have the potential to improve patient care and control rising costs. These payment models are increasingly being implemented by a range of care delivery providers in the United States. Integrated delivery networks (IDNs)-systems of providers and sites (e.g., group practices and hospitals) that care for and provide health care services and health insurance plans to patients in a specific region or market-present special opportunities and challenges for value-based care and represent an important sector for the advancement of value-based models. Successful implementation of value-based agreements in IDNs requires a range of complex capabilities, including advanced data analytics, population health management solutions, comprehensive care management, and successful patient engagement. To address these and other operational issues, the Academy of Managed Care Pharmacy convened a stakeholder forum on November 13-14, 2018, in Baltimore, MD. Forum attendees addressed topics including (a) the current delivery of value-based care in IDNs; (b) opportunities and barriers to implementing pharmaceutical value-based agreements; (c) recommendations for IDNs to reach the full potential of value-based agreements; and (d) opportunities for collaborations among managed care organizations, accountable care organizations, and IDNs to improve health care outcomes. Thought leaders with a wide range of backgrounds attended the forum, including those representing patients, payers, providers, government, and biopharmaceutical companies. The forum was sponsored by Amgen, Boehringer Ingelheim, Bristol-Myers Squibb, Genentech, Lilly, MedImpact, Merck, National Pharmaceutical Council, Novo Nordisk, Pharmaceutical Research and Manufacturers of America, Takeda, and Xcenda.
