Population Health Performance 2016: The Training Wheels Are Off

Bradley Hunter, Research Director, KLAS.  Providers knew that value-based care was inevitable. To prepare, they practiced on their employees, took on a few payer contracts, and selectively implemented a few tools. Now, having gotten their balance, many are taking off the training wheels and taking on more risk. But are PHM vendors ready as well? Bradley answers these three major questions: Which vendors are geared to meet needs for more data faster and with less effort? Who has strengthened and tuned their workflows for program administrators, care managers, and clinicians at the point of care?  And where are the adaptable, responsive partners that providers need to help them stay upright in a rapidly changing, high-risk environment?
