Managing COVID-19 within value-based health care systems.

Abstract

The pandemic’s full impact on our society, all citizens, and the health care system is still to be determined. What is more clear is the need to let go of conventional approaches to the evolution of health care strategy, where largely incremental change at a slow pace taken over multiple years has been required to modify the status quo. The challenges of a sustainable health care system have never been so concrete. With the emergence of the COVID-19 pandemic, there’s significant uncertainty that’s facing society as a whole, as a result of the significant disruption that has affected our traditional approaches to health care economics. VBHC may prove one of the strategic drivers to not only lead our health care system into the future, but also to determine the pace of change that is required.
