“The most pressing health concern in our market is the need for accessible, affordable, high-quality care — the same issue facing the rest of the country and, indeed, the world.
UPMC is uniquely positioned to meet this need. By combining a broad provider network, an insurance division and our affiliation with one of the top research universities, we have the right expertise, information and incentives to truly provide ‘value-based’ care.
To give you a few examples of how this integration plays out, we’ve recently merged our physician and hospital groups so their patient care efforts are even more coordinated; we’re developing a robust analytics initiative to better understand how to provide the best outcomes at the lowest cost; and we continue to invest hundreds of millions of dollars every year into groundbreaking medical research at the University of Pittsburgh so better science will inform our care.”
