Value Based Care and Clinically Integrated Networks
Healthcare reimbursement is shifting from fee-for-service to new models that reward better outcomes and high-quality care.
Clinically Integrated Networks (CINs) are legal entities that are comprised of a select network of providers from across the care continuum working closely together to deliver evidence-based care, improve quality, efficiency, and coordination of care, all while demonstrating value to the market.
CINs negotiate and enter contracts with health care payors on behalf of health care providers and often provide their participants with centralized services, analytic insights, and tools they need to improve quality, utilization and patient outcomes.
CINs offer many benefits to participants including optimized interconnectedness between healthcare providers across the continuum and the potential for shared savings revenue.
