Value Based Healthcare:
tools for digital health

At Quodem, we implement Value-Based Healthcare, the new paradigm of Digital Healthcare, which has emerged from outcomes-based technological breakthroughs, scientific innovation and patients’ cultural changes.

Value-Based Healthcare Vs Traditional Medicine Model

Traditional model

  • Volume of services and benefits
  • Quantity
  • Health service providers feel incentivised to provide as many services as possible: more costs
  • Reactive and transactional care
  • Limited technology
  • Absence of sophisticated analyses

Value-Based Healthcare

  • Value
  • Quality
  • Health service providers feel incentivised to provide quality care that improves patient outcomes.
  • Proactive and preventive care
  • Doctors empowered with new technologies
  • Use of data to improve the patient’s health

Reasons for implementing Value Based Healthcare in digital health

At Quodem, we have been working on digital projects in the health sector for over 15 years. The objective of implementing Digital Health tools is to improve patient care. These are some of the most important keys:

Standardisation

What variables to measure and how to measure them in the healthcare processes for a specific pathology, in order to compare the results obtained per patient, regardless of the hospital or service. Risk needs to be adjusted depending on the type of patient (age, comorbidities, etc.) in order to homogenise the value provided to each one.

Transparency and competitiveness

Transparency and the reporting of the results obtained by the various healthcare providers promotes improvements in healthcare processes by increasing competition between them.

Patient value

Creation of standard sets (standardised information to collect for each pathology) aimed at identifying the true value created for the patient.

Metodología ICHOM

ICHOM is a non-profit institution that is promoting an international collaborative project to determine value-based outcome indicators. ICHOM has developed its own standard set that includes:

  • Implementation and coordination of the project with all the parties involved.
  • Development of the technological platform and the support required for the launch of the product.
  • Technological infrastructure.
  • Support for the compliance model (patient consent, bioethical documentation, etc.)
  • Information gathering, with the value that this has for hospitals and the perception of value by the customer.
  • The involvement of patients and collaborating centres will allow the final definition of the model once it has been tested in the real environment of the centre.
  • Use and subsequent analysis of data.
  • Total continuity of the project including 1st level support for the user (doctors and patients) and 2nd level technical support for the use of the platform in hospitals.

At Quodem, we take ICHOM methodology as a point of reference for the development of digital health actions and Value Based Healthcare.

Agents involved in digital health: Value-Based Healthcare

Concerning Value Based Healthcare, an ecosystem has been created focused on the methodology of results obtained like ICHOM and in Digital Health solutions, in which all the components form a perfect gear:

  • Providers: they have the tools to understand how treatments affect quality of life.
  • Consumers (Healthcare Professionals): choose the most appropriate treatments thanks to these tools.
  • Pharmaceutical companies: recruit the providers to facilitate the two aforementioned points.
  • Governments (Public health administration): develop policies that support value-based medical attention.
  • Patients: benefit from this new model, which improves their quality of life.

Digital Health focused on patient benefit

There has been a major step in traditional medicine based on the quantity of services provided towards medicine based on the value of services. All these advances can be used by patients and have a better quality of Digital Health service:

  • Cost savings.
  • Improved quality.
  • Optimisation of results.
  • Comparison between professionals.
