How can practices get better at measuring outcomes and handling data analytics?
The way that we’ve gone about that is to have very structured processes for how we do vendor selection in areas where we need help.

But, it’s still not where we need it to be.
So, there’s a combination of growing the claims data and analytic capabilities internally as quickly as we can, while contracting for outside help with vendors who can really deliver value in meeting the objectives of reducing unnecessary healthcare costs and enhancing the quality of the patient experience.
