Podcast -Why VBC Makes Healthcare More Expensive

Description Value-based care was designed to make healthcare cheaper and better. But in the last 15 years, it has done the exact opposite. This podcast explains how VBC is implemented in real life as risk-based contracts, leading to consolidation and, in turn, higher costs across the entire economy.

Podcast - VBC & PE: A Match Made in DC

Description In this episode, I discuss why Private Equity (PE) is so interested in funding Accountable Care Organizations (ACOs) participating in Value-Based Care (VBC) contracts. I break down the math to show why PE always wins at the expense of independent physicians.

Podcast - Good Intentions, Bankrupt Doctors

Description Value-based care is supposed to save money, but for independent physicians, it's often a structural trap. Using a custom financial simulation model, I break down the mechanics of these contracts when well-meaning insurance companies try to help independent ACOs by funding the infrastructure costs. Discover how and why primary care physicians can go bankrupt even when they get “free money” under value-based care.

Podcast - The Math Behind Hospital-Based ACOs

Description Value-based care is supposed to save money, but for independent physicians, it's often a structural trap. Using a custom financial simulation model, I break down the exact contract mechanics of what happens when independent ACOs partner with hospital systems for funding. Discover how this setup actively works against independent doctors and accelerates healthcare consolidation.

Podcast - VBC Financial Simulation Model

Description I created a financial simulation model to mimic value-based care contracts. This screencast explains how the model is structured, what the different variables mean, and shows some of the capabilities. It also demonstrates how a value-based care contract works in real life and often why it paradoxically increases the total cost of care.

Liker at det er både Podcaster (godt utvalg) og lydbøker i samme app, pluss at man kan holde Podcaster og lydbøker atskilt i biblioteket.
Bra app. Oversiktlig og ryddig. MYE bra innhold⭐️⭐️⭐️
