About
The Center for Health Value Innovation (“the Center” or “CHVI”) is a non-profit 501(c)3 educational organization representing over 40 million lives that serves as the information exchange for value-based designs.
Our mission is to drive the value of every dollar invested in health
Our goal is to identify and link innovators and innovation that broaden the boundaries of health value
Our work is focused on defining value, creating relevance to shareholders and stakeholders, and improving the health and economic viability of communities.
We are a collaborative community of stakeholders, led by employers of all sizes and sectors, who are improving health status while reducing total cost trends using value-based designs. We learn and share as a community of thought leaders, as a knowledge resource, and as innovators for new trends.
Our latest finding: There are more than 100 levers that influence consumer and patient behaviors in Value-Based Design according to our interviews and surveys. How they are used and the results they bring are part of our shared journey. The 15 macro-levers are being published in our new book, Leveraging Health, which you can order through our website if you click on the book icon.
It’s important to note that value-based designs (VBD) are much more than waived or reduced co-pays for chronic care, particularly medications. A value-based design uses evidence-based clinical impact merged with financial impact (Health + Economics) to guide the behaviors of populations in managing their health. VBD can influence choice of care provider, appropriate and persistent treatment, and early risk/prevention/wellness. All of these have been documented to show a meaningful impact in health status, productivity (safety, disability, unscheduled absences, and more), quality and financial cost trend.
We value your input to our thoughts, our posts, and our efforts. Check our pages often–we publish news, press releases, and updates to our findings rapidly. We welcome your comments to our blogs and will post them as quickly as we can. If you’d like more information from us, click on “email” and we’ll get back to you, usually within 72 hours.
The Value-Based Design network is growing larger each day. We hope you will share your experience with us, including successes and challenges. We never publish anyone’s information without written consent. The best place to start: share your journey with us, confidentially. It’s a quick, 12-question survey that shows us the needs and successes in the marketplace. Periodicially we post the aggregate results.
