  4. Common Mission • To advance high quality, affordable health care • With a community focus • And through collective employer action

  5. What is the Value Based Purchasing agenda? A demand side strategy of: • Standardized performance measurement • Transparency and public reporting • Payment reform • Consumer activation/informed consumer choice For the end goal of continuous quality improvement

  8. What is the relevance of HIEs to the Coalition/Employer Community? • Both have clear focus on health system reform at the community level. • Some high level understanding that HIT infrastructure has potential to enable higher quality, greater efficiency and population care management. But where is the evidence? • And will HIEs become a community based infrastructure to support the value based purchasing agenda of coalitions/employers? • Unanswered questions- multi-stakeholder dialogue needed.

  9. Can BTE become a “sweet spot” for Business Coalition-HIE collaboration? • eHI partnership with BTE is a clear signal that VBP is on the agenda • HIEs have potential to build a community database of clinical “money measures” not available through claims • For the purpose of powering BTE’s performance-based payment and choice strategy • Can we execute on the vision?
