When you go shopping, do you simply go to the store with the intention of
buying as many items as you can? Or do you select items based on the quality
and satisfaction they will deliver for the money you spend? For most people, the
quality of a product, relative to its cost, is most important. The field of healthcare today is making a similar distinction, placing a heightened emphasis on the
delivery of value as opposed to sheer volume.

For decades, providers in the United States operated according to a model of
volume-based care, under the general assumption that more care was better. In
recent years, however, important developments in policy and payment and innovations in disease management, complex case management, population health,
predictive analytics, and decision support have contributed to a paradigm shift
toward value-based care.
The Core Elements of Value in Healthcare provides a comprehensive introduction to value in healthcare as it relates to policy, delivery, finance, economics,
strategy, public health, population health, operations, compliance, managed care,
accountable care, and preventive medicine. The concepts of this book are reinforced through case examples and detailed discussion questions that encourage
readers to apply the key principles as they learn.
Drawing from his extensive experience in healthcare, Dr. Paveljit S. Bindra examines
value from a variety of perspectives. Specific areas of focus include the following:

Clinical innovations
Alignment structures
Payment reform
Quality improvement
Information technology

The Core Elements of Value in Healthcare equips readers with the knowledge to
address disparate elements in the healthcare value chain, and it demonstrates how
effective coordination of these elements can enhance the quality of care, reduce
costs, and improve patient satisfaction and outcomes.
