The COVID-19 pandemic has taught us it’s possible for the health care system to transform care delivery—and quickly. We saw vaccines come to market in record time, heightened cross-industry collaboration to track vaccine statuses, and virtual care use surge. Similarly, the pandemic demonstrated that value-based care delivery models, where payment is based on outcomes versus the number of services provided, are critical to improving patient outcomes and lowering costs.

These state-based initiatives are designed to improve outcomes through a focus on standardizing data and investing in automated data reporting and exchange channels.
