Program description
What is value-based care? It's a transformational approach to health and healthcare administration that emphasizes outcomes rather than procedures. It incentivizes a personalized approach to delivering the right support at the right time to maximize the health of individuals, communities, and populations. This shift away from fee-for-service toward understanding and maximizing health needs early and throughout the healthcare journey puts prevention and well-being front-and-center. As more and more of the industry moves toward value-based care, including major insurance providers and government agencies, there is huge demand for health administration leaders with a deep passion for and a keen understanding of value-based care. A master's-educated healthcare practitioner can build a strong, fulfilling career on helping drive this crucial movement in American healthcare.
