But for all the discussion around the term, one thing seems missing: a common definition. VBC seems fairly straight-forward to most observers and that might be part of the problem. Indeed, ask a half dozen people what value-based contracting means and you’ll get as many answers. This white paper explores and pros and cons to VBC and its implications in workers' comp. More »
