West Health Institute Toolkit: Forging Aligned Partnerships Between Value-Based Care Organizations and Geriatric Emergency Departments
West Health Institute has published a toolkit, "Forging Aligned Partnerships Between Value-Based Care Organizations and Geriatric Emergency Departments (GEDs)," and a related blog, "Tools to Support GEDs in Establishing Partnerships with Value-Based Care Organizations."
In 2023, West Health Institute led an effort to connect value-based care organizations (VBCOs) and accredited geriatric emergency departments (GEDs) to develop new pathways that direct seniors visiting the emergency department to VBCO resources, and started the Learning and Action Network.
The Institute has now released its Forging Aligned Partnerships Between Value-Based Care Organizations and GEDs Toolkit, which provides a wealth of resources for VBCOs and GEDs looking to pursue similar partnerships. The toolkit has two versions – one for the VBCO audience and one for GEDs.
Emergency clinicians who are looking to achieve successful care connections with VBCOs can also utilize the accompanying blog for more information and tools.
