About eValue8 – An Overview
The leading evidence-based request for information tool: eValue8™ —
is widely used by business health coalitions, their purchaser members and national employers to assess and manage the quality of their health care vendors. eValue8 raises the bar for health care performance and moves the market to deliver greater value for the purchaser's health care dollar.
Up-to-date information that drives value based purchasing
The eValue8 tool uses a standard annual request for information survey to gather hundreds of benchmarks in critical areas such as adoption of health information technology, member and provider communications, disease management, program administration, provider performance, patient safety, pharmacy management, behavioral health and financial stability. Standardized performance reports are prepared for HMO/POS plans as well as for PPO plans and networks. Content for the survey is coordinated using input from purchasers, coalitions, and health plans and incorporates guidance from experts from the Centers of Disease Control, the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration, George Washington University and others in public health and academia. eValue8 also works in concert with accrediting bodies, including the National Committee on Quality Assurance and the Joint Commission for the Accreditation of Healthcare Organizations, to prevent redundancy and build on existing standards.
