CareAllies Earns 6th Consecutive Top Value-Based Care Consultants Rating, 2023 Black Book Physician Practice Advisory Survey
TAMPA, Fla., May 11, 2023 (Newswire.com) - Black Book Research announced the top physician practice and medical organization consultants, as collected from 2,420 providers in advisory outcomes, client experiences, and satisfaction. In total, 44 consultant firms received crowd-sourced evaluations from the polls conducted between September 2022 and March 2023.
CareAllies was rated highest among Value-Based Care Transformation and Strategy Advisors for the sixth consecutive year for the highest customer experience reported by clients of accountable care organization support, value-based arrangements, and provider-payer partnerships.
"The Black Book 2023 rankings confirm CareAllies' reputation and expertise in delivering solutions to healthcare organizations as they incorporate value-based care models in their practices," said Rob Cetti, President of CareAllies. "This recognition is attributed to our employees for their knowledge, customer service, and dedication to providing solutions to physicians and other providers, so they can remain committed to providing high-quality care to their patients and improving health outcomes in their communities."
Black Book Market Research LLC measures client satisfaction across 20 qualified consultant-centric, copyrighted key performance indicators: level of advisory expertise on the subject matter, innovation, training, engagement successes, expertise with governance and organizational structure, strategic engagement customizations, vendor agnostic identification and selection processes, values and integrity, objectivity in advisement, scalability, marginal value adds, client care, accountability and trust, reliability, consultant firm viability and management stability, return on investment, quality of recommendations, process improvement tools, and marketing brand image. The ranking measures outcomes in five value-based functions: clinical transformation, financial transformation, care coordination, accountable care contracting, and risk share models.
Notable from the survey's ad hoc polling is that 93% of all physician organization decision-makers considering value-based care contracting in 2022-2023 will enlist the services of a consultant firm for lack of internal resources to evaluate, transform and implement successful VBC systems.
As of Q1 2022, 74% of physician groups of more than five practitioners currently in a VBC agreement have not activated a strategic plan to implement advanced analytics and/or reimbursement solutions, an increase of 10% since the start of the pandemic.
"Medical practices are seeking consultants to push them through the value-based care transitions and managed long-term VBC health plan contracts in multi-payer environments," said Doug Brown, President of Black Book. "Consultative approaches that emphasize physician engagement, culture change, actionable data, and advanced population health analytics are producing very motivated physician organizations as they move from volume to value."
"Many physician practices are not succeeding linearly through the transition towards alternative payment models and do not have the expertise internally, thus the meteoric rise in the demand for experienced consultative engagements," added Brown.
A decline in VBC advisory and implementation engagements in 2021-2022 was attributed by physician practice respondents due to the COVID-19 outbreak has resulted in losses in attributions (92%); missed outcome metrics (40%), and inability to handle reporting requirements without assistance (85%). Projections from the input of nearly two-thousand physician groups and practices in the Black Book recent survey indicate the value-based care sector is expected to exceed a CAGR of 28% and reach $4.6 billion by 2026.
