Payer-Provider collaboration and vertical integration are becoming increasingly important as value-based care is a primary differentiator for health systems.

Helping organizations look beyond transactions between hospitals and health systems to partnerships between health plans and provider organizations
Kaufman Hall understands the strategic and financial imperatives for payers and providers today. The great decentralization of healthcare (virtual, home, etc.) is inspiring a wave of new industry entrants – with significant implications for provider and payer incumbents. Payment models are increasingly marching toward value, fueled by material changes to our regulatory environment, consumer/purchaser landscape, tech enablement, physician enablement, and consequences of cost sharing.
