Finance executives at hospitals and health systems see the most opportunity to work with commercial insurers to increase downside risk in payment contracts, according to a new survey.
The survey, published Wednesday by consultancy Navigant, found 64% of finance leaders said they plan to assume additional risk in contracts with commercial payers in the next one to three years. Medicare and Medicare Advantage were behind with 57% of executives saying they plan to take on more risk in traditional Medicare contracts while only 51% of executives answered that they plan to assume more risk in the Medicare Advantage sector.
