Value-Based Care Insights New Episode NOW On-Demand
Strengthening service line performance requires a strong foundation in primary care, which remains central to delivering effective value-based care. Yet, the landscape of primary care delivery is marked by significant challenges including workforce shortages, provider burnout, administrative burdens, and increasing barriers to patient access.
On this episode Dan kicks off a new series exploring specialty service lines by starting with the primary care service line. He is joined by Dr. Sarita Soares, Program Director for the Yale Primary Care Internal Medicine Residency Program, and Dr. Brad Richards, Executive Director of the Yale Primary Care Internal Medicine Residency Program and Associate Professor of Medicine at the Yale School of Medicine. Together, they discuss the shifting dynamics of primary care, the growing integration of behavioral health, the role of technology in improving access, and what healthcare leaders can do to better support providers and patients in this changing environment.
Key Takeaways:
- Primary care is under mounting pressure prompting leaders to reimagine how it is delivered and supported in the face of shortages, burnout, and red tape.
- Virtual care, telehealth, and behavioral health integration are expanding access and transforming the role of primary care physicians in managing patient needs holistically.
- To thrive in a value-based environment, leaders must invest in primary care workforce development, technology enablement, and care models that support both patient outcomes and provider well-being.
