Leadership POV: The Shift to Value-Based Care Is a Contracting Conversation

As healthcare continues its shift toward value-based care, revenue strategy must evolve alongside it. Today, strong performance isn’t defined by clinical quality alone — it’s also shaped by how organizations contract, negotiate, and align with payors on value-based care language.

From Medicare Advantage growth to ACO participation and risk-based arrangements, provider success increasingly depends on value- based contracts that support outcomes, sustainability, and long-term growth. Ensure that the value-based language presented is transparent and supportive of your future financial and operational model is critical.

“Value-based care requires a different mindset. It’s not just about delivering great care — it’s about ensuring your payor contracts are structured to support outcomes, performance, and financial stability over time.”

— Laura Cabe, VP of Revenue

🚫➡️📄 When “No” Is Just the Beginning

If you’ve ever pursued a payor contract, you know the frustration of doing everything right—only to receive a flat “no.” But in many cases, that denial isn’t the end of the conversation. It’s the start of the negotiation.

In his latest blog, Scott Dewey, Chief Managed Care Officer at PayrHealth, breaks down why initial payor denials are often a test of persistence—and how providers can turn rejection into opportunity.

🔑 Inside the post, Scott outlines:

• How to lead with data that reframes your value
• When and how to escalate effectively to true decision-makers
• Why firm, patient persistence is often what separates stalled negotiations from successful contracts

At PayrHealth, we see “no” as an opening move—not the final answer.

Myth vs. Reality: Credentialing

Myth: Credentialing is complete once a provider is enrolled.

Reality: Credentialing requires ongoing maintenance — including revalidations, updates, and payor follow-ups.

This is one of the most common misconceptions we see. Missed steps can lead to claim denials, payment delays, and unnecessary rework that impacts both revenue and patient access.

At PayrHealth, we help practices stay ahead of credentialing maintenance so teams can focus on patient care — not paperwork.
