Value in healthcare lies at the intersection of Payers, Providers, and Patients. Nascate is focused on this interconnectedness by understanding the Relationships and Behaviors that drive healthcare outcomes. We are a team of healthcare professionals that have experience designing payment systems and developing analytic frameworks that support value-based arrangements. Despite these efforts, we recognized that the industry was still struggling in the transition to sustainable value-based care. The missing element, in our view, was a quantitative way to measure the relationships and behaviors that impact decisions and outcomes in healthcare. We found that missing element by focusing on the intersection of patients, providers, and payers- this is what translates into healthcare experience. Life (geography, access, provider relationships, choice, personal and family health history) informs a person's choices, behaviors, and healthcare outcomes. Life needs to be accounted for in value-based care efforts. Our larger desire was to understand how to quantify and map patient and provider activity and patterns of behavior in such a way that conclusions can be drawn and predictions can be made about the relationships and choices impacting healthcare... "the why".
