<p>“Right now, the value-based care reward is coming into the payers far more than it’s coming into the providers.”</p><p>A primary care provider shortage is on the horizon. Between resolving coverage disputes, trying to get reimbursed for services, and limited time with patients, PCPs are burnt out. </p><p>But what if we reimagine the primary care payment model to work better for providers and patients?  </p><p>In this episode, we sit down with <a href="https://www.linkedin.com/in/mary-tracy-mock-68b6aa31/" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" target="_blank">Mary Tracy Mock</a> to tackle one of the most urgent and complex issues in healthcare today: the state of primary care and the payment arrangements shaping its future. Mary is a seasoned healthcare executive and veteran of value-based arrangements. </p><p>We break down the pressing primary care workforce crisis, and how outdated reimbursement systems are contributing to provider burnout and could soon lead to primary care “deserts.” Mary makes a compelling case for a radical reimagining of how we value and pay for primary care — from capitation to Direct Primary Care (DPC) and beyond.</p><p>Whether you’re a policymaker, provider or patient, this conversation will challenge your assumptions — and offer real solutions!</p><p>Sources Referenced:</p><ul><li><p><a href="https://relentlesshealthvalue.com/episode/ep462-managing-populations-of-whole-actual-people-who-are-not-the-sum-of-a-bunch-of-different-body-parts-with-scott-conard-md" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" target="_blank">Episode 462 of Relentless Health Value w/ Scott Conard, MD</a></p></li><li><p><a href="https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/35029652/" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" target="_blank">https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/35029652/</a> </p></li><li><p><a href="https://drive.google.com/file/d/1SziV6tJrBWF3LQ7UIzufG83a41G_W87-/view?usp=sharing" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" target="_blank">VBC Venn Diagram from Mary Mock</a></p></li></ul><p>————————————</p><p><em>All episodes of MTVA Unscripted can be found⁠ </em><a href="https://www.movingtovalue.org/podcast" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" target="_blank"><em>⁠here⁠⁠</em></a><em>. </em>| Sign up for our email list <a href="https://www.movingtovalue.org/community" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" target="_blank">here</a>.</p><p>Thank you to our <a href="https://www.movingtovalue.org/supporters" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" target="_blank">MTVA Trade Members and Ally Members</a> whose support helps make this podcast possible!  <br />As a 501(c)(3) nonprofit, we rely on support from our grassroots network to advance our mission of creating a value-based health system with high-quality patient outcomes at a reasonable cost.
