These days, the idea of "value" is at the center of many activities
and decisions in health care in the United States. While there
exist books that detail the technical steps for how to carry out a
specific type of value assessment, such as cost-effectiveness or
return on investment, there are few that attempt to teach
healthcare professionals how to think about value. This book
provides a deeper understanding of value as a concept as well as an
endeavor (as in, to determine or uncover the value of care) within
the healthcare industry by illustrating the different components of
value that should guide decision-making processes for policy,
infrastructure, and quality improvement. Through an exploration of
theories of economics and implementation science, as well as
practical suggestions for real-world applications, this text
provides a foundation for the long and complicated "value" journey
the US has bet its entire healthcare system on. In the US, policy
to promote what is referred to as "value-based care" is here to
stay. As we move forward within this construct, we need to move
beyond the over-simplified definition of value as "quality per
dollar spent" to a more functional framework for how to think about
value that can adapt to different circumstances and points of view.
Only then will it be possible to compare value across settings,
conditions, and activities. The book consists of 9 chapters
organized in four sections: Part I: Understanding the Challenges of
Assessing the Value of Health Care Part II: A Primer on Fundamental
Concepts and Current Techniques Used to Measure Value in Health
Care Part III: A Discussion of the Real-world Motivations and
Requirements that Should be Contemplated when Exploring Value Part
IV: How to Design and Perform a Value Assessment Practical
Strategies to Assess Value in Health Care is an essential resource
for healthcare professionals at all levels and points of care who
are interested in understanding how best to assess and interpret
value for a particular situation including providers,
administrators, payers, insurers, health plans, and policy-makers.
