Driving Commercial Value-Based Care Adoption

Employers are central to the U.S. health care system, with employer-sponsored insurance covering over 150 million non-elderly individuals. However, rising premiums have made it increasingly difficult for employees to access the care they need. Value-based care (VBC) offers a promising solution for employers that helps control costs while improving the quality and accessibility of care.  

This resource provides a comprehensive look at the current state of commercial VBC, including adoption trends, key barriers, and the roles of major stakeholders including patients, employers, payers, and providers. The resource outlines both the challenges and opportunities facing each group in driving commercial VBC adoption and closes with targeted, actionable recommendations to accelerate VBC adoption and innovation in the commercial market. A few key recommendations include:  

  • Employers: Create incentives for employees to use value-based providers 
  • Payers: Share actionable data to support contracting and care decisions 
  • Providers: Partner with risk-bearing specialists 
  • Patients: When available, use available tools to identify high-quality providers
