Practice Transformation. Enabling provider readiness and encouraging practice transformation. VHCIP’s care delivery activities are designed to enable provider readiness to participate in alternative payment models and accept higher levels of financial risk and accountability. This area of work includes monitoring Vermont’s existing workforce, as well as designing transformation activities that support provider readiness. We have two areas of early success within this work stream: our Sub-Grant Program and the Integrated Communities Care Management Learning Collaborative. The Sub-Grant Program supports over 15,000 Vermont providers in practice transformation and impacts over 300,000 Vermonters from all over the state. The Integrated Communities Care Management Learning Collaborative, launched in late 2014, seeks to improve care and reduce fragmentation for at-risk Vermonters and their families by enhancing integrated care management across multi- organizational teams of health and human services providers. The first cohort of the Learning Collaborative included three communities and 90 providers, and the initiative has expanded to two new cohorts with teams of health care and service providersfrom 8 additional interested communities in the state. The Learning Collaborative utilizes a Plan-Do- Study-Act quality improvement model punctuated with periodic in-person and virtual learning sessions. The program will also evaluate whether the interventions improve coordination of care and services.
