Health Affairs Briefing: Securing The Future Of Value-Based Payment

On April 18, Health Affairs will sponsor a half-day forum for policy makers on the future of value-based payment in health care. The forum follows an event we hosted last year to educate the policy community on critical value-based payment issues that will shape the future of the health care system. Indeed, while much has changed over the past year, and much uncertainty remains, the health sector as a whole shows no flagging in its commitment to delivery system reform.

You are invited to join Health Affairs on Tuesday, April 18, 2017, in Washington, DC, for a half-day forum for policy makers on the topic of "Securing the Future of Value-Based Payment." The program will include panels on existing and developing value-based payment programs for hospitals and physicians, as well as a discussion of the best ways to measure value for both.
