Value Based Care and Population Health

Align incentives, activate data, and elevate quality

Value‑based care (VBC) succeeds when strategy, operations, clinical workflows, analytics, and technology move in lockstep. Nordic brings deep clinical expertise and enterprise EHR and ERP know‑how to unify those threads so you can deliver measurable quality, financial, and experience improvements.

Value-Based Care and Population Health at a glance

We design, operationalize, and scale value‑based care and population health programs that measurably improve quality, lower total cost of care, and enhance clinician and patient experience. We specialize in:

Accountable Care Organization (ACO) and Alternative Payment Model (APM) planning
Clinical Documentation Improvement (CDI)
Risk stratification
Social Determinants of Health (SDOH)
Integration
Predictive analytics
Platform enablement

Measured Real outcomes that enhance value

We focus on trackable performance, embedding VBC and Population Health workflows, governance, and analytics to raise quality, protect margins, and lower total cost of care.

What capabilities do we need to succeed in value-based care?

Most VBC programs succeed or fail on the same core capabilities: data, governance, EHR-embedded workflows, care management operations, risk adjustment/documentation, contract operations, and a performance cadence that drives accountability. We assess your current state across people, process, technology, and governance, then deliver a prioritized roadmap with an execution plan.

How do we improve quality performance and close care gaps consistently inside the EHR workflow?

Sustained quality improvement occurs only when gap closure is integrated directly into everyday clinical and care team workflows and not managed through reports or after the fact outreach. We redesign quality as part of in-visit and between-visit workflows: intelligent prompts at the point of care; role-based tasking for medical assistants, nurses, and care managers; automated outreach; and exception handling that reflect how clinics actually operate. The result is fewer missed opportunities, reduced manual effort, and a predictable monthly improvement cycle that executives can depend on.

How do we fix data quality and interoperability, so our VBC reporting is trusted?

VBC performance stalls when leaders lack trust in attribution, registries, or measure logic. Focus first on data credibility, not dashboards; standardizing core EHR data; validating attribution and registries; and integrating external sources – claims, labs, admission, discharge, and transfer (ADT) data, and post-acute data – through a governed interoperability approach.

Where should we focus our investments so that resources aren’t spread too thin, and the ROI is clear?

Use attribution, risk stratification, and utilization patterns to identify populations with the highest potential performance, not just the highest risk. Then, connect each group to targeted interventions, such as care management intensity, access improvements, post-acute steering, medication adherence, or transitions of care, with assigned owners and expected outcomes. The result is a focused portfolio of initiatives directly linked to outcomes that leaders prioritize, reduced avoidable utilization, improved quality scores, and margin protection under risk.

How can I shift meetings from focusing on the numbers to emphasizing results?

Real performance management relies on a formal quality measure operating model. This includes a governed measure dictionary, calculation logic, version control, ownership, refresh schedule, and escalation paths when results are off track.

It is crucial to connect measures to action: who addresses which gaps, how outreach is initiated, how exceptions are managed, and how performance is reviewed regularly. The aim is to create clarity, accountability, and faster course correction rather than debates that stall execution.
