Featuring Sanjay Basu and Bruce Landon
Primary care practices across the US are starting to change the way we practice, incorporating more non-visit types of care such as e-visits or telephonic or even skype visits. Adding these modalities to a practice require investment: in technology, in training staff, in developing, testing, and implementing workflows – and at what point does all of this become financially sustainable? What is the question that Drs. Sanjay Basu and Bruce Landon, along with colleagues Russ Phillips, Zirui Song, and Asaf Bitton set out to look at in their 2017 Health Affairs paper entitled: High Levels Of Capitation Payments Needed To Shift Primary Care Toward Proactive Team And Non-visit Care.
