Provider Coding Accuracy in Commercial Value Based Contracts: Impact on Risk Adjustment and Performance Metrics
 
Provider Coding Accuracy in Commercial Value Based Contracts: Impact on Risk Adjustment and Performance Metrics
As the prevalence of commercial value based contracts grows, so too does the variability of a provider's overall compensation. In value based contracting, providers are "measured" on certain performance metrics that will dictate ho much they are ultimately paid. In this environment, risk adjustment plays an integral role in determining the provider's "measurement" of financial performance.

For value based contracts to be equitable to all parties, risk adjustment should endeavor to accurately capture the change in the underlying population's morbidity to effectively measure the provider's true cost impact on its attributed population.  Accurate data is critical in this regard to deliver accurate risk adjustment. The accuracy of risk adjustment is dependent on a provider's capability in capturing the most accurate diagnosis information on patients. Improving risk adjustment accuracy can significantly change a provider's calculated measurement on performance metrics.
