Overview

The Book provides a clear, practical guide to understanding and implementing value based care in the United States healthcare system. Written for clinicians, health system leaders, payers, policymakers, and analytics teams, the book bridges the gap between policy concepts and real world execution. The book begins by explaining why traditional fee for service reimbursement has led to fragmented care, rising costs, and limited accountability for outcomes. It then introduces value based care as an outcomes focused alternative, grounding the discussion in the realities of healthcare delivery, insurance structures, and payment reform. A central focus of the book is episode based care, presented as a foundational and actionable value based model. Readers are guided through how episodes of care are designed, operationalized, measured, and managed across the full patient journey. The book explains how bundled payments, shared savings, and population based models work in practice, including their financial, clinical, and operational implications. Throughout the chapters, the book emphasizes the importance of data, analytics, and artificial intelligence in enabling value based care at scale. It explores how AI supports risk stratification, episode management, quality measurement, care coordination, and operational efficiency, while addressing governance, ethics, equity, and responsible use. Designed as both a training resource and an implementation handbook, this book offers structured frameworks, real world examples, and operational guidance to help organizations move from fee for service toward sustainable, outcome driven care. It is suitable for professionals new to value based care as well as experienced leaders seeking a deeper operational understanding of episode based and value based payment models.
