New Study of Physicians and Health Plan Executives Reveals Actions Needed to Accelerate Value-Based Care

A new study of physicians and health plan executives suggests that the complexity of quality measures and physicians' lack of access to patient data at the point of care are barriers to the healthcare industry's adoption of value-based care. The study, commissioned by Quest Diagnostics (NYSE: DGX) and Inovalon (NASDAQ: INOV), also reveals physicians and health plan executives hold starkly different perceptions about the importance of, and impediments to, value-based care adoption, pointing to opportunities for greater physician, health system and health plan collaboration.
