Cost of Care Conversations: Practice Briefs
As part of the Cost Conversation projects, Avalere worked closely with the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation project grantees to synthesize the key themes and findings across their exploratory studies and create 7 Practice Briefs. These briefs are intended to act as actionable resources to clinicians, staff, and practice administrators interested in increasing the value and frequency of cost-of-care conversations in the clinical setting. The briefs cover the 7 key topics below.
- Why Do Cost-of-Care Conversations Matter?
- What Your Patients Aren’t Telling You: How To Partner with Patients To Help Manage the Hidden Costs of Healthcare
- How To Welcome Cost-of-Care Conversations in Your Practice
- Structuring the Conversation: How To Talk To Your Patients About the Costs of Their Care
- How To Integrate Cost-of-Care Conversations into Workflow
- Considerations for Facilitating Cost-of-Care Conversations with Vulnerable Patients
- Addressing the Most Common Barriers to Implementing Cost-of-Care Conversations
