Value-Based Care is here and it will soon be mandatory. We share everything you need to succeed… and we’re the best.

We have everything you need to succeed in Value-Based Care.
We have content for a variety of professionals including specialists, primes, nurses, administrators, back-office folks and front office folks, leaders, attorneys, academics, even investors.

My partners and I founded the first Value-Based Care system to integrate specialists as full partners, with aligned incentives. Our specialists did very well.

I understand that for patients to thrive, specialists have to succeed. That’s why I share specialty-specific expertise through our community, for free.

I’ve been advising capital investors for decades, long enough to have seen virtually every investment error repeated many times; mis-valuations, unrealistic projections, poorly assessed risk—all could have been avoided by the insights we share in our community.

Value-Based Care is now the industry’s dominant payment model and demand for attorneys with expertise is great and growing.

Here on our community, we share what attorneys really need to know.
