- Health care spend via value-based care
set to double by 2020
- Local insights and customization
critical to achieving the ‘triple aim’ of value-based care
Mercer today announced the launch of a suite of solutions to
help employers navigate the growing market for value-based care,*
one of the core strategies that will drive the transformation from
a fee-for-service to a fee-for value health care delivery model.
Millions of Americans already receive their health care through a
value-based care model, while health care reimbursement via
value-based care is supposed to more than double by 2020 (20% to
46%)**.
Using proprietary and industry data as well as innovative
technology, Mercer has developed a way to help employers assess
what value-based care approaches are right for them, what
opportunities exist in key local markets to support these
approaches, and how to implement and communicate appropriately with
the target employee populations.
“We see value-based care as a potentially game-changing approach
to achieve the much discussed ‘triple aim’ of reducing health care
costs, increasing the quality of care and improving the patient
experience,” said Molly Loftus, Mercer’s Chief Health Care Actuary.
“We believe, however, that value-based care can only deliver on
these goals if programs are not only carefully and properly
structured and deployed, but also managed at the local-market level
– the place where health care actually happens.”
Mercer’s new full suite of value-based care solutions
includes:
- Mercer Health Care Value Finder™
– an iPad app that helps identify ‘hot spots’ by market and then
aligns available value-based care models to each in order to help
clients define their opportunity market or markets
- Mercer Map Your Course™ – a
Q&A assessment that helps map the value-based care starting
point for a given employer
- Market Profiles – market by
market ‘deep dives’ that describe the opportunities and challenges
of implementing value-based care in a particular location in terms
of care hot spots, marcro-economic dynamics and available care
models
- Market Action Map – an outline
of activities needed to take place in order for an employer to
finalize and execute a given value-based care strategy
In addition to these resources, Mercer has created a
comprehensive summary of the national carriers’ value-based care
strategies and approaches along with RFP, communications and
measurement support tools.

*Note to editors – Mercer defines value-based care as the shift
in health care organizational and payment models from volume (“do
more”) to value (“do better”).
