With the rise of models like the new Bundled Payments for Care Improvement Advanced program, Accenture and Loopback Analytics are teaming up to assist health systems that want to participate in value-based care initiatives.
In September 2016, University of Tennessee Medical Center started using Loopback Analytics' solution to cut readmission rates and improve medication adherence among patients.
The future looks bright for the integrated specialty pharmacy model – for health systems, providers, and most importantly, for patients.
Broader scalability of bundled payment options will be paced by the availability of accurate and timely data from network participants and workable frameworks for sharing risks and rewards among bundled payment partners.
