35-Minute Chat With Value Based Care Leader

Mark Sanderson heads up data analytics for value based care for Mass General Brigham's health plan, but it’s his path to this point and views on the challenges and successes in lowering total cost of care that are as good a grounding as anything for those looking to get inside the mind of someone at the forefront of value based care policy. My one-on-one chat with Mark is captured here in this 35-minute conversation from July 18th, although you’ll have to get to the 20 second mark before I realize the recording has started! In it, we get into the challenges with VBC for an integrated delivery system, the types of data Mark and his team monitor, debates around cancer care, GLP-1s and biologics, orthopedics, imaging and mental health, how they drill down to design programs that can improve outcomes and lower cost, and how to get a health plan’s attention.
