Webinar 3: Cost Allocation Methodology for Value-Based Payment Systems

To assist health center finance and accounting staff in preparing for the transition to value-based payment and care, the Delta Center hosted a series of webinar trainings on Understanding Your Costs in an Evolving Payment Environment. These webinars were facilitated by Capital Link, a national, non-profit organization that specializes in helping health centers improve operations and financial management.

The third webinar discusses how to identify and calculate costs in a value-based reimbursement environment. Beginning with a high-level overview of value-based reimbursement concepts, we describe the methodologies for identifying costs related to care pathways and clinical outcomes, and provide examples that translate this effort into identifiable costs.
