Gain the knowledge you need. Improve outcomes and join a global network of transformation leaders.
The Value Institute for Health and Care offers interactive programs that provide real-world insight from leaders, tools that facilitate the transition to high-value care, and case studies on organizations that are changing the way health care is delivered. These programs are action-oriented: we expect participants to go back to work the next day and implement value-based health care initiatives as a result of having attended.
Who Should Attend
Professionals from across the health care sector who want to lead change in existing organizations, become transformational leaders, and create high-value services in the health sector are encouraged to attend.
At the end of each program, participants will receive a certificate of completion from the Value Institute for Health and Care.

The goal of health care is to create value by improving the outcomes that matter to patients for the money spent to achieve those outcomes. This workshop will focus on the “how to” of outcomes measurement, including where to start, what measures to use, how to begin using available tools for data collection, and how registries are used.

Participants will get to know the Capability, Comfort, and Calm framework, which simplifies and streamlines outcome measurement and evaluation. Participants also will discuss how to create and support a learning culture that overcomes barriers to measurement and enables continuous care delivery improvement.
This workshop will be led by Dell Medical School faculty Elizabeth Teisberg, PhD; Scott Wallace, JD, MBA and Kathy Carberry, RN, MPH.
Strategy for Health Care Transformation
Next session: March 1 & 8 (both dates required). Online. 8:30 AM - 12:30 PM CT
Price: $950
Virtual
While most health care organizations have a strategic plan, relatively few have a clear strategy. Strategy encompasses the decisions an organization makes about the tightly-connected activities that enable it to uniquely serve its patients, as well as the trade-offs inherent in those activities. This multi-day interactive program teaches participants how to build, assess, and improve strategy within their organization. Participants will define strategy and learn why it is critically needed in health care. Through case discussions and overview presentations, participants will discover how a value-based strategy improves outcomes and activates new dimensions of growth.
Learning objectives:
Align enterprise strategy with the purpose of the organization
Integrate strategy, culture, and measurement to enable transformation
Distinguish a strategic plan from a strategy
Identify an organization’s distinctive strategic opportunities
Evaluate the role of measurement in transforming the organization’s strategy and culture
Discuss how to enable high value growth
Experience Group Methodology
Next session: May 10 & 17 (both dates required). Online. 8:30 AM - 12:30 PM CT
Price: $950
Virtual
Organizations can efficiently identify the outcomes that matter to patients, as well as the obstacles to health and gaps in care that keep patients from optimal health, by using the Experience Group Methodology.
This qualitative research tool gives you a different way of engaging with patients by centering the conversation around their lived experience and honoring patients’ expertise about their health and care.
The workshop will teach you how to gather actionable insights, and how to turn those insights into new, better, and more effective patient services.

Previous Speakers
“As a trainee, it was extremely insightful to hear from experts in the field regarding a novel approach to health care. I definitely feel that value-based care is an important aspect of medicine, and it was such a pleasure to learn how to incorporate it into our everyday practice.”
“I had some value-based health care theory under my belt already, but this course allowed such a good lens into the implementation using relationships, empathy, and a grounded approach to outcome collection.”
