RESUMO
A healthcare organization's efforts to strategically transform its cost structure in preparation for value-based payment invariably must begin with a systemwide assessment of cost and quality. Such an assessment should focus on three categories of performance improvement activities: margin improvement, business restructuring, and clinical transformation. A work-team approach is recommended, where teams with multidisciplinary representation assume responsibility for assessing specific areas (e.g., acute care enterprise, physician enterprise, business restructuring).

Five tactics can help heath systems overcome common hurdles they may encounter in their efforts to reconfigure their delivery networks for value-based payment: Develop a shared perspective of the changing market. Translate this market perspective into guiding principles. Adopt a "blueprint" approach. Carefully sequence changes with the full spectrum of services in mind. Fully engage physicians in the process.
