Porter on Value in Health Care • Presentation to Center for Public Leadership, Harvard Kennedy School: http://youtu.be/Z3fKyWydweo
What is the Goal? • Access? • Availability? • Equity? • Cost containment? • VALUE = Outcomes -:- Costs
Outcomes • Multidimensional • Over time…
Cost • Total cost of all services for full care cycle
Six Strategic Objectives • Organize system around patient • Measure outcomes and costs • Pay in “bundles” • More connection, less all-service stand-alone • Break down and out of narrow geographies • IT, but not for a broken system
Obj. 1: Implications • “From organizing around the exception to organizing around the rule” • Primary Care: organize around specific patient populations • Volume for specialization and dedicated facilities
Obj. 2 • Now: only measuring processes… • Must measure outcomes
Implications for Government • Establish universal measurement and reporting • Shift reimbursement systems bundled • Medicare to lead… • Remove obstacles to integration • Stark Laws limiting referrals (“conflict of interest”)? • Separate payments to hospitals and doctors? • Illegal to hire a doctor as an employee? • Open competition • Encourage patient responsibility • Set standards and mandate EMR adoption
