Volume to Value in Healthcare
Consider the impact of the transition from volume- to
value-based health care delivery in your organization or one with which you are
familiar.
Potential transitions to consider may be examples such as
the shift from inpatient to ambulatory care, the Patient Centered Medical Home
(PCMH) initiative, or the Delivery System Reform Incentive Payment (DSRIP)
initiative.
With this in mind, read the Porter and Lee article published
in the Harvard Business Review, and compare their strategic proposal with the
transition you are considering.
Describe the nature of the transition in the organization.
Discuss and assess how this transition affected operations, based on the
organization’s operational resources and limitations. How did the organization
respond to the changes? Was the response effective? How does the IPU approach
compare to the transition response? Justify your conclusion. Recommend an
alternative course of action
