Realizing the value in value-based care: Integrated PHM and overcoming the limitations of EHRs

Part 3: How EHR replacement slows the move to value-based care

The final installment in our three-part series examines the high-costs of EHR replacement, which can surpass $100 million for larger health systems. Equally at issue, a replacement project seeking greater PHM capabilities can set back a system’s progress in pursuing value-based care contracts. The paper examines:

• The success Eastside Health has realized by managing disparate EHR data through the Philips Wellcentive platform
• How EHRs are built for episodic care and not population-based VBC
• Federal government checkpoints and cautions for system replacement
• Drill downs into the minefields around the data migration, integration and implementation steps
