The Operating System For Value-Based care

Conclusions In order to support the sea change occurring in medicine – moving from fee-for-service to value-based care – the technology platform must also be re-invented. Institution-centered technology, which is the soil where current EHRs have grown, will no longer work. No matter how much effort is put into connecting data silos with record locater services and lowered technology barriers between them – dubbed “interoperability” in current lingo – the solution will not be sufficient. A universal data platform is needed, where patients and care teams can see their information and use it in meaningful ways. This is a new paradigm. It is an Operating System for Value-Based Care. It is a modern platform that has input pipelines and outputs, and draws from modern social technologies that have emerged in other arenas outside of health care. It includes some apps as starting points, and encourages the health IT developer community to build on top of it. Dr. Rowley is Co-Founder and Chief Medical Officer of Flow Health.
