In this episode recorded at the Population Health Colloquium in Philadelphia, Scherpbier shares key insights on transitioning from traditional fee-for-service models to value-based care that focuses on entire patient populations. Learn how healthcare organizations are shifting their strategies from generic care gap management to identifying high-need patients and moving care from hospitals to homes. Scherpbier discusses the critical role of digital patient engagement tools, analytics for targeted interventions, and the challenges of physician adoption amid documentation burdens.
