Delivery System Reform

Aurrera Health supports clients seeking to change the services, structure, and incentives within and across payers and programs to improve quality and health outcomes. As we increasingly recognize the variety of factors that truly contribute to overall health and wellbeing, the federal government and states are beginning to pay for new services, provider types, and ways of delivering care that focus on outcomes. The work dovetails closely with our whole person health portfolio.
