Digital health momentum is shifting from “more virtual visits” to infrastructure for VBC execution: ambient AI, hub-and-spoke virtual clinics, intelligent hospital rooms, and interoperability layers are being positioned to reduce clinician burden, extend rural and school-based access, and support longitudinal population management—but health systems are still struggling to make digital services financially sustainable under current reimbursement models. The clearest VBC tension is that integrated primary care/behavioral health and telehealth-enabled CHC models are reducing avoidable ED and hospital use, yet payment structures still lag the operating model, reinforcing the need for prospective, team-based, and outcomes-oriented reimbursement (NACHC). At the same time, mixed evidence on remote monitoring and persistent data fragmentation are pushing ACOs and payers to demand tighter proof of ROI, workflow integration, and interoperability rather than standalone point solutions (Healthcare IT Today).
