2 experts to physicians: Value-based care is her to stay

Ingrid Lund, Ph.D., practice manager for the physician practice roundtable at  The Advisory Board Co.,  and Eric Cragun, senior director for health policy at the Advisory Board, agreed in a Physicians Practice podcast that value-based care is here to stay, as is much of the Affordable Care Act.

Ms. Lund said: “Certainly whatever the GOP does, whatever their next move on healthcare reform is, it will impact providers in some way, but I think we can agree there are some safer bets and ways to move strategy forward even though we’re in this point of uncertainty.”

She also said that the bi-partisan Medicare Access and CHIP Reauthorization Act (MACRA) will stick around and that physicians should continue to adapt to the move toward risk-based contracts.

Another “safe bet,” according to Ms. Lund, is to “double down on your consumerism strategy” thanks to the rise of health savings accounts and high-deductible health plans.
