The rapid rise of value-based payment (VBP) models presents both new opportunities and challenges for behavioral health providers, especially in health systems that serve low-income and marginalized communities. This column discusses the experience of a community health care system as an early adopter of VBP in order to demonstrate both the constraints and possibilities health systems face when implementing VBP models. This example and the lessons drawn from it can assist other health systems seeking to implement these models.
基于价值的支付(VBP)模式的迅速兴起,为行为健康服务提供商带来了新的机遇和挑战,尤其是在为低收入和边缘化社区服务的医疗体系中。本专栏讨论了一个社区医疗保健系统作为 VBP 的早期采用者的经验,以展示医疗系统在实施 VBP 模型时所面临的限制和可能性。这个例子及其得出的经验教训,可以帮助其他寻求实施这些模型的医疗系统。
