Managing Total Cost of Care
Addressing behavioral health conditions are a significant driver for improved life and health outcomes. More payers than ever are tying their performance-based incentives to integrated care to lower the total cost of care. Our resources collect, collate, and distribute tips and strategies for successfully managing total cost of care as a behavioral health provider. From engaging the un-engageable to collaborating with physical health providers in a clinically integrated delivery system—our resources bring information to on-the-ground care managers and C-Suite strategists to assist you in being a part of successful value-based delivery of care model.
