"Value-based providers had invested in the right infrastructure before
COVID-19, allowing them to be more flexible and in a better position to
leverage technology, drive more care to the home and be more sensitive

– the pandemic reaffirmed the imperative for value-based care." - William Shrank, MD, MPHS, Chief Medical Officer, Humana |
