Albany Med Health System, a nonprofit health system serving northeastern New York and western New England, has entered a strategic partnership with Honest Health to advance its value-based care capabilities.
The collaboration, announced in April, will equip Albany, N.Y.-based Albany Med’s advanced practice providers, nurses and more than 800 physicians with real-time insights, predictive analytics and population health management strategies.
“The Albany Med Health System is committed to delivering the highest quality of care to the communities we serve,” said Dennis McKenna, MD, president and CEO of Albany Med Health System. “Through our partnership with Honest Health, we are ensuring our providers have access to innovative solutions that enhance patient outcomes, improve operational efficiency and create a more sustainable future for healthcare in our region.”
Honest Health is a physician-led organization, established in 2021, that works alongside health systems and providers to improve patient care while keeping costs in check through a suite of tools and capabilities, including those designed for accountable care organizations, Medicare Shared Savings Program participants, and networks of preferred providers.
“At Honest Health, we believe that true transformation in healthcare happens when physicians have the right tools and resources to focus on value over volume,” said Robert Bessler, MD, CEO of Honest Health. “Partnering with Albany Med Health System represents a shared commitment to building a sustainable, patient-first model of care that improves quality, enhances efficiency and supports providers every step of the way.”
