Executive Dialogue

To improve health equity, business strategies need to be intentional

Value-based programs that financially incentivize the alignment of medical and social care have the potential to move the needle on health equity. Hospitals and health systems from across the country came together to discuss how their organizations address community health needs, how to build the business case for health equity and the challenges and opportunities for advancing this essential work.

Here are six themes about how to advance equity strategies in alignment with value-based programs:

  • Align the moral case for health equity with the business case.
  • Intentionally apply a health equity lens to value-based programs.
  • Tie equity and value strategies into existing structures and governance.
  • Create the infrastructure for data collection, analysis and use.
  • Foster partnerships between payers and providers.
  • Engage and invest in the community.
