Two American Hospital Association Committees — the 2015 Committee on Research and the 2015 Committee on Performance Improvement — recently released a joint report, “Care and Payment Models to Achieve the Triple Aim.” Click here to read more and to read the report.
The Triple Aim of health care is to improve the patient experience, improve the health of the population and make health care cheaper per-capita. The new report addresses how hospitals can develop new delivery systems and innovative payment models that best meet the needs of their organizations and communities, as new delivery systems will have to be woven into the fabric of local communities and lives of patients and families.
