Paying for Better Health: The Promise of Value-Based Care

Описание: What if healthcare rewarded better outcomes—not more procedures? Value-based care is reshaping how health centers provide care nationwide.

We explore the challenges, opportunities, and real-world impact of this model on people’s lives. Join us for a clear look at the future of care delivery—and what’s at stake.
