Mission and Goals

The New York State Department of Health has established the goal of 80% of Medicaid managed care payments occurring through value-based payment (VBP) arrangements One of the most significant barriers identified by community providers and communitybased organizations is the lack of familiarity with VBP contracting

To address this need, the NewYorkPresbyterian Hospital Performing Provider System (PPS), in close collaboration with the NewYorkPresbyterian Queens PPS, co-sponsored a webinar training series for primary and specialty care providers, behavioral health providers, and community-based organizations The two PPS worked with several experts to lead the trainings and addressed various topics, including: •An introduction to VBP

•Overview of the New York State VBP

Roadmap

•Data utilization for quality improvement

•An introduction to managed care organization VBP strategies

Eight webinars were held in 2018, with nearly 200 people attending
