Typically, within a health system, or across provider organizations the models are: ACO, CCO, CIN ACO/CCO Provider Based Health Plan Clinically Integrated Network Delegated Risk Model Direct Employer Contracts Direct Employer Contract Delegated Risk Model Provider Based Health Plan
Characteristics of Operational Models in Value Based Care Accountable Care Organizations Government and Commercial Plans Focus on quality and costs Revenue is FFS + Incentive (Cap is coming) Attributed membership Can cross healthcare entities Starting point for VBC efforts Clinically Integrated Networks Involves multiple, specialized organizations Similar to an IDN on the delivery side Revenues is FFS and shared incentives for quality and cost High operational maturity Focused on competitive advantage in the market All plans Attributed membership in some cases Care Coordination Organizations Government focused today Commercial plans increasing Focus on coordinating care for specific populations Revenues are administration fees and quality incentives CCO does not always provide the care Delegation of medical management from the plan
Characteristics of Operational Models in Value Based Care Direct Employer Contracts Risk is borne by one or both parties Allows grater margins for one or both parties Volume is key to the provider Revenue is premiums + incentives Service experience + quality of care + costs are key to the employer Must be well branded, and operationally mature to be successful Provider Sponsored Health Plan Risk is borne by the provider org Lower risk as provider quality/cost is more known Payer ops differ greatly and can pose risk to success Revenues are premiums High business process outsourcing to start Focus on employee population first Delegated Risk Provider Traditional provider organizations taking risk Revenue is capitation for medical services + admin fees for outsourcing plan functions Member services, medical management and claims adjudication Expenses are capitation and some FFS Ranges from specific services to full capitation Benefits are similar to the Provider Health Plan
