In 2018, 35.8 percent of U.S. healthcare payments, representing approximately 226.5 million Americans and 77 percent of the covered population, flowed through alternative payment models (APM) built on fee-for-service architecture or population-based payments, according to a new infographic by the Health Care Payment Learning & Action Network.
The infographic highlights the payer perspective on the future of APM adoption as well as the top three barriers and the top three facilitators of APMs.
A laser focus on population health interventions and processes can generate immediate revenue streams for fledgling accountable care organizations that support the hard work of creating a sustainable ACO business model.
