Frequently Asked Questions
Who is this course for?
This course is designed for healthcare leaders, operators, clinical teams, and payer/provider organizations already working in value-based care who want to optimize performance at scale. It’s intended for teams managing mature VBC programs and looking to improve operational efficiency, financial performance, care coordination, audit readiness, and prospective risk adjustment workflows across increasingly complex environments.
How much is it?
The full three-session course is free of charge!
Do I have to be at every session? How long are they?
Each of the three sessions is 90 minutes and includes live interaction with industry experts. We highly recommend attending live to get the most out of the discussions, but don’t worry all sessions are recorded and available to watch on-demand if you can’t make it in real time.
Will I be an expert in value-based care after finishing this course?
Well, you’re probably already a healthcare expert if you’re taking this course. But you’ll leave with a stronger understanding of how mature VBC organizations actually operate at scale: the workflows, strategies, and operational decisions that drive performance across complex payer and provider environments.
Is there a lot of work?
Nope! There’s no heavy homework. The course is designed to be practical and manageable, even with a busy schedule. You’ll get optional resources and playbooks to explore between sessions if you want to go deeper.
What will I walk away from this course with?
Hopefully fewer spreadsheets, fewer last-minute fire drills, and a much clearer understanding of how mature VBC organizations actually operate at scale. You’ll walk away with practical strategies and operational frameworks for managing multi-payer complexity, improving performance, strengthening audit readiness, and building more proactive, coordinated workflows across your organization.
