VBC Insights in action
Insights dashboard
Identify and prioritize cost savings and quality improvement opportunities
Deliver high-quality, cost-effective care by gaining a deeper understanding of how to reduce unneeded emergency department (ED) visits, hospital admissions, readmissions, post-discharge care, medication use, and out-of-network utilization.
Optimize efficiencies and outcomes
Free up valuable resources and identify opportunities more efficiently and in less time with contextualized reports that can easily be filtered (e.g., time periods, demographic characteristics, provider groups or regions, or other criteria) and plug into existing workflows.
Increase performance, satisfaction, and profitability
Increase alignment and the likelihood of value-based care success by providing stakeholders with meaningful insights needed for prioritizing strategic initiatives and achieving shared goals.
