The collaboration, which marks Cigna’s 142nd collaborative care arrangement, aims to improve patient outcomes and support population health management by tying value-based incentives to performance improvements.
“Health Choice Preferred looks forward to working with Cigna to transform patient care and build a more effective, sustainable model of healthcare delivery in Utah,” Mike Uchrin, CEO of Health Choice, said in a statement. “By implementing a system that rewards quality of care, rather than the volume of services, together we believe we can improve health, lower healthcare costs, and increase satisfaction for both patients and providers.”
