Partnering for sustainable community health and healthcare
Community Focus
Because each community's demographics, employer base, healthcare infrastructure and culture are unique, a "one size fits all" approach to health reform typically does not meet a community's needs. Community-based health reform works because it is tailored to the local environment with greater control over system design, resources and decisions.
Health Value CommunityTM Benefits
The HVCTM framework proactively addresses multiple components of reform, through starter programs and broad participation in the sharing of ideas and learnings. By starting with demonstration projects, HVCTM takes a proven approach to tackling the enormity and complexity that is inherent in system restructuring.
