Care Coordination & Engagement

Over the past week, significant attention has been given to enhancing patient engagement and care coordination in the context of value-based care (VBC). A new checklist has been introduced to support patient engagement in rare disease value research, which aligns with ongoing initiatives by CMS to improve patient involvement in their care pathways. Additionally, advancements in AI technology for patient engagement, as demonstrated in a conversation between Sutter Health and Sierra, are emerging as critical tools for health systems. This focus on technology and structured approaches emphasizes the importance of holistic care coordination strategies moving forward in the VBC landscape.
