¿Qué es el cuidado basado en el valor?
The value-based care (VBC) care delivery model rewards providers for quality health outcomes rather than the quantity of care delivered. Con este abordaje, los proveedores se concentran en mejorar la salud de una población de pacientes a través de un cuidado preventivo, con la mejor evidencia disponible y una atención personalizada. This shift allows care teams to maximize "chair time" and productivity, and the industry to better integrate with the overall health care system. Payors are starting to move away from the outdated fee-for-service model and toward alternative value-based payment models, such as capitation or global payment, bonus and incentive payments and shared savings models with or without shared risk.
Today, more than 40 states are working to adopt value-based payment initiatives. Según un informe reciente de DentaQuest, la mayoría de los dentistas (73 %), médicos (82 %) y empleadores (87 %) coincidieron en que el seguro dental debería priorizar los resultados saludables sobre el volumen de atención. More than half of employers surveyed said they were interested in implementing a VBC benefit design for dental coverage.
While achieving true VBC in oral health care will not happen overnight, DentaQuest is uniquely positioned to help to drive this change by:
- Rediseñar los modelos de pago de manera de recompensar a los proveedores por mantener sanos a sus pacientes
- Enabling providers and their dental teams to develop individualized, interactive care plans that allow the patient and their families to play a more active, engaged role in improving their own oral health
