			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><strong>St. Louis, MO – October 05, 2009 </strong>–  The Center for Health Value Innovation (<a href="http://www.vbhealth.org/">www.vbhealth.org</a>), the nation’s premier information exchange for value-based design, today announced an alignment with the American College of Occupational and Environmental Medicine (ACOEM; <a href="http://www.acoem.org/">www.acoem.org</a>) and the Integrated Benefits Institute (IBI; <a href="http://www.ibiweb.org/">www.ibiweb.org</a>), creating a powerful triumvirate to better articulate the value of health and productivity management (HPM).  Working together, these leading organizations will create standardized data and result metrics for value-based HPM and launch HPM Clinics designed to educate and inform insurance brokers and industry consultants on the opportunities to enhance employer competitiveness and health in the community, and concurrently bend cost trends.</p>
<p>“Now more than ever, we need to amplify the message that poor health adversely impacts the physical and financial health of a community, and identify options for improvement,” says Cyndy Nayer, president and CEO of the Center. “We anticipate that program participants will begin utilizing key value-based strategies for designing healthcare programs, including HPM modeling and finely honed measurement tools.  As a result, compromised communities will begin to see improved health and a reduction in health cost trends.”</p>
<p>These organizational relationships further position the Center as a proving ground for innovative thinking, providing all stakeholders in the health care continuum a platform for fertilizing and implementing fresh ideas that advance individual health and contain costs.</p>
