Winning in TEAM: The Operating Model for Sustainable Performance
The CMS Transforming Episode Accountability Model (TEAM) represents more than a new bundled payment program. It signals a broader shift toward accountability for cost, quality, care coordination, and performance across the continuum. For health systems, success in TEAM will require far more than regulatory readiness. It will require a new operating model. In this session, THMA and Navvis will explore how AdventHealth and Inova are approaching TEAM as a catalyst for enterprise transformation.
The discussion focused on the capabilities needed to succeed in episode-based care, including physician alignment, post-acute strategy, clinical pathway standardization, care management, analytics, and cross-continuum collaboration. During this 60-minutes session, attendees will gain practical insights into how organizations can use the model's first-year upside-only structure to build sustainable capabilities that improve financial performance, strengthen care delivery, and prepare for the future of value-based care.
