As healthcare continues shifting toward value-based care, organizations are under increasing pressure to improve quality, reduce costs, and demonstrate measurable outcomes. But success in value-based care depends on more than collecting data—it depends on how healthcare organizations translate information into decisions and actions that meaningfully improve patient outcomes and experiences.
In this episode of the Human Resilience Podcast, hosts Bob Gold and Shelley Schoenfeld are joined by Howard Brill, Senior Vice President of Population Health at Elm and Oak Health, for a conversation exploring the evolving role of health informatics in value-based care and population health management.
Together, they discuss:
- Why healthcare organizations often struggle to move from data collection to meaningful impact
- The growing complexity of value-based care measurement and reporting
- How clinical, operational, and patient data can better support decision-making
- The importance of balancing analytics with human-centered care delivery
- Why engagement and behavior ultimately shape outcomes beyond metrics alone
- The challenges and opportunities of supporting vulnerable and underserved populations in real-world settings
The conversation also examines an important reality in healthcare transformation: more data does not automatically create better outcomes. Instead, organizations must better understand the stories that data reveal and use those insights to create systems, workflows, and support models that help patients, providers, and care teams navigate healthcare more effectively in real time.
Because the future of value-based care isn’t just about measurement. It’s about turning information into action that improves human experiences and outcomes.
