“Value-Based or Value-Less?
From the Board Room to the Exam Room:
Medicare, Privatization, and the Menace of ‘Value-Based’ Care”

In this talk and Q&A via Zoom on Tuesday, November 28, from 7 to 8:30 p.m., Dr. Ana Malinow will discuss why she opposes a trending approach in healthcare provider payment called “value-based” care. She will explain what it is and why many of her colleagues and healthcare policy analysts say the term is misleading. They warn that tying patient outcomes and provider payment is problematic for both patients and providers. It further complicates health care, promotes continued privatization, and is being used to delay real reform: publicly financed universal health care. Learn all about it!
