Welcome to
the Syntax Blog

One of the biggest gaps in transforming the way care is delivered is the tension between hospital systems, physician organizations who administer care, and insurance companies who administer payment. Value based care is a concept that aims to change that dynamic.  The basic premise: organize our healthcare system in a way that compensates the provider of care for delivering value to their patients. 

​

There’s a lot of hesitancy about going to value-based payment, and as an industry, we seem to be stuck in place. Insurance companies who pay for care and physicians who provide care are often deadlocked in manual processes, inefficiencies and imprecision, fundamental issues that create friction and underlie a persistent lack of trust and transparency.
