FEMALE VOICEOVER: Optum is transforming behavioral health care by creating a system that works better for patients and providers.

[Text On Screen – Value-based Care]

One of the ways we are doing that is called value-based care. Value-based care is a model of health care delivery that is based on the quality of the treatment delivered,

[Text On Screen – Quality of Treatment]

rather than the number of services provided. Value-based care relies on data that connects the care someone receives

to the health outcomes they experience.

that revolve around claims and the number of times a patient comes to the office for a visit.

In a value-based care model,

important data are included in a patient's electronic health record.

These data come from both the patient and the clinicians, and these data help everyone make informed decisions around care.

[Text On Screen – Data: Provider access, Follow-up visits, Assessment data]

Some examples of important data include how soon a patient can access a provider, how quickly a patient received follow-up visits, pre and post care assessment data.

[Text On Screen – The first step in Value-Based Care]

Data collection is just the first step in value-based care.

early intervention, personalized treatment plans, functional outcomes, patient satisfaction, clinician well-being, lower healthcare costs.

[Text On Screen – Value-Based Care Model]

In a value-based care model, clinicians see several big benefits,

better fee schedules, bonuses, and other financial rewards, enhanced decision making around treatment,

[Text On Screen – Value-Based Care Mode: Close collaboration, Quicker access]

close collaboration within a care team, quicker access to important data to help shape clinical care.

[Text On Screen – Benefits both clinicians and patients]

All of this benefits both clinicians and patients.

[Text On Screen – Commitment to the Quadruple Aim: 1) Better outcomes, 2) Lower costs, 3) Improved patient experince,4) Improved provider experience]

Value-based care aligns with our commitment to the quadruple aim: better outcomes, lower costs, improved patient experience, and improved provider experience.
