Key Elements: ✓WHAT community need do you address? ✓WHOM do you serve? ✓HOW do you meet the community’s needs? ✓WHY are you better than your competitors? Strong value propositions are relevant, specific, and CREDIBLE.

Step 4: : Craft Your Actual Valu lue Proposition

slide-14
SLIDE 14

Crafting CBH’s Value Proposition - Sample Outline

What community need do you address?

  • Community members

with behavioral health disorders lack access to appropriate services. Some are using the hospital as their primary source of care, and their post- discharge care is not being well coordinated.

Whom do you serve?

  • CBH serves adults with

serious mental illness and/or substance use

  • disorders. Many also

have co-morbid chronic health conditions. 79%

  • f CBH’s clients have

coverage through XYZ Health Group.

How do you meet the community’s needs?

  • Licensed clinicians

provide an array of psychiatric and counseling services using validated screening tools and evidence based

  • treatment. CBH has a

new follow up care program targeting clients with serious mental illness who have been hospitalized for psychiatric reasons.

Why are you better than your competitors?

  • CBH is outcomes-
  • riented and has strong

data analytics

  • capabilities. We have

data that show we can get clients seen within 7 days post- hospitalization at a higher rate than the MCO average. We are efficient and keep

  • verhead costs low.

The Center for Behavioral Health (CBH) has provided evidence-based mental health since 1978. Eighty four percent of CBH clients have Medicaid managed care through the XYZ Health Group. We provide a continuum of recovery-oriented services that help ensure adults experiencing a serious mental illness or substance use disorder, can lead healthier, productive lives. All too often, adults with (SMI) lack adequate community-based treatment and use the hospital as their primary source of care, and their post-discharge care is not being well coordinated. At CBH licensed clinicians provide an array of services including: psychiatric care and medication management; individual, family and group counseling services; nurse care management and care coordination services; wellness services focused on whole-person care; and peer support. CBH also specializes in post-acute care and has successfully piloted a 7 day follow program to ensure appropriate coordination of care for adults with SMI who have been hospitalized for psychiatric reasons. We are unique because of our strong organizational philosophy of being patient-focused, outcomes

  • riented, and cost-effective. We use validated screening tools and track key performance indicators. The

impact of our services is clear. Last year: ➢ Seventy percent of clients referred to CBH following psychiatric hospitalization were seen within one week, compared to the MCO average of 45%. ➢ Eighty percent of CBH clients reported they were satisfied or highly satisfied with our services. ➢ Eighty two percent of revenues went directly to patient care. “Kelly” is one of many clients whose lives have been changed by CBH. According to Kelly, “About a year ago I was having severe mood swings and gaining a significant amount of weight. I did not want to get

  • ut of bed and missed so many days of work that I lost my job. I was in and out of the hospital and felt

like I did not have anywhere else to turn. Fortunately, CBH’s Care Coordinator met with me upon my last hospital discharge and helped me connect with their services. I started meeting with a Psychiatrist as well as a social worker. I have not been back to the hospital in almost a year now. I feel like CBH turned my life around. For the first time in a long time, I have hope for a better future.” With your support, CBH can reach more clients like Kelly and help reduce unnecessary readmissions.

Step 5: : Develop Your Communications Strategy

✓Think of how you will communicate your value proposition. What will be most effective for your audience? ✓Share quantitative data through charts, graphs, or other visual representations. ✓Share patient stories that demonstrate your success! ✓Incorporate your value proposition into:

  • Presentations
  • Collateral materials such as fact sheets, newsletters, brochures
  • Formal written proposals
slide-20
SLIDE 20

CBH’s Communications Strategy

✓CBH’s contract as part of the XYZ Health Plan Network is up for renewal in 3 months. ✓CBH determined the best strategy for communicating their value proposition would be to develop a white paper and also request to do a formal presentation at a contract negotiation meeting. ✓CBH incorporated the quantitative data they had collected and the most compelling patient story they had collected.

Bring

the right people to the room.

Look

for the win-win.

Understand

what is important to the payer per your stakeholder analysis.

slide-22
SLIDE 22

✓Partnerships can enhance your value proposition by expanding your scope of services, reaching a larger patient population or bringing in additional capacity and core competencies. ✓If you decide to partner, ensure you share a common vision, clearly defined roles, agreements in writing, and aligned value propositions.

Step 6: : Enhance Your Valu lue Proposition Through Part rtnerships

slide-23
SLIDE 23

Participant Poll

Do you think CBH could enhance their value proposition through a partnership?

  • No- they have what they need.
  • Yes- they lack access to hospital cost and utilization data. A

partnership with the local hospital would enhance their value proposition.

  • Don’t know.
slide-24
SLIDE 24

CBH’s Partnership Strategy

✓CBH determined it would be more effective in reaching clients within 7 days post hospitalization by formalizing their partnership with the local hospital. ✓They created a Memorandum of Understanding and written protocol for information exchange. ✓CBH decided it would be strategic to invite the hospital to their upcoming contract negotiation meeting with XYZ Health Plan.

slide-25
SLIDE 25

Step 7: : Update and Tail ilor Your Valu lue Proposition

✓Determine a process for reviewing and updating your value proposition based on emerging needs, new partnerships, current data and/or accomplishments, significant changes within your

  • rganization, changes to your costs or within your external health

care environment. ✓Identify the person(s) or team who will be responsible for updating your value proposition, how often it will be reviewed and updated and how you will engage leadership and staff in this process. ✓Update your value proposition in accordance with your process.

  • Focus on results rather than the journey.
  • Be clear about the size and characteristics of the

population being managed.

  • Acknowledge significant progress toward a

population management approach.

  • Use performance on process measures and clinical

guidelines to describe performance, but also consider and include information on next steps to fully capture value.

slide-30
SLIDE 30

Thin ings to Keep in in Min ind When Wri riting
