Defining Success in Value-Based Care at the Health Innovation Summit
October 9, 2024 · Becky Kolinski
Find out which organizations are putting the “value” in value-based care at NCQA’s Health Innovation Summit, October 31–November 2, in Nashville, Tennessee. Value-based care is one of four key themes at the summit, and we’re bringing experts from around the country to share their successes in value-based payment models.
Value-based care requires integration and alignment—among payers and clinicians, and within the care delivery team. Whether you are focused on the clinical aspects of value-based care or the technology that enables it, you’ll benefit from a holistic understanding of how the system’s components work together.
“I’m looking forward to hearing about the innovations in technology that support value-based care and outcomes measurement,” says Jim Laing, Director of Product Management at NCQA. “Care coordination is the goal, but the technology and infrastructure are essential to make it scalable across large populations.”

Who Is Elevating Quality in Value-Based Care?

This panel discussion will dive into effective partnerships that prioritize the patient experience and enable meaningful measurement.
Keynote Speakers:
- Daniel A. Kuzmanovich, Advisory Board
- Farzad Mostashari, MD, Aledade
- Lori Ferguson, NCQA
- Wilson Gabbard, Advocate Health

Transforming Health Care: A Payer’s Guide to Address Health Inequities
CareFirst BlueCross BlueShield integrates a public health framework with business operations and strategy to advance access, affordability, quality and equity.

You’ll see how their activities played out in a real-life use case of addressing racial disparities in severe maternal morbidity.
Implementing Patient-Reported Outcome Performance Measures in Payment Programs
Patient-reported outcome performance measures (PRO-PM) are a vital component of value-based care that require new workflows and streamlined reporting. Two organizations will share their experience implementing PRO-PMs for patients with chronic kidney disease and end-stage renal disease, including how to train teams and establish workflows.
