LEADERSHIP
Are We Aligned to Make VBC Work?
Here are 3 questions you should be considering
#1. Has leadership clearly identified which populations or service lines are prioritized for scaling up VBC initiatives — and which are not?
Why this matters: Not every population or service line can be transformed at once. Clear priorities help focus resources, guide teams, and prevent efforts from becoming scattered.
#2. Where do current incentives still favor the old system?
Why this matters: VBC cannot succeed if incentives still reward volume over outcomes. Identifying where the old system still drives behavior helps leaders shift toward care that improves results.
#3. Do clinical, operational and financial leaders share ownership of a single VBC roadmap?
Why this matters: VBC requires alignment across clinical, operational, and financial leadership. Shared ownership keeps decisions connected and prevents fragmentation as initiatives move forward.
