People living with serious illness constitute nearly 50% of spend and 40% of risk adjusted revenue. This is due to frequent utilization of high-cost, low value services, including avoidable admissions, emergency department visits, and facility stays. These services disrupt care planning and burden patients and families with unnecessary care transitions and costly care.

Our fragmented health system
fails those with serious illness.

Payers are not able or equipped to manage the growing population of their seriously ill members. They also don’t have the resources to determine which providers deliver quality care in an expanding sea of providers.

Fee-for-service payments promote
volume instead of value.

Providers operate in a fee-for-service structure which promotes interventions, and they are delivering services within uncoordinated workflows, which leaves them delivering higher cost, unsatisfactory care as their only path to sustainability.

Votive Health facilitates payer-provider integration through value-based agreements that eliminate unnecessary and unwanted services, reduce patient suffering, sustainably reimburse providers, and reduce the total cost of care by keeping people with serious illness at home.

Votive Health helps health plans and providers deliver high-quality care to people with serious illness. We leverage our expertise in network analysis, information technology, and capacity management to improve market performance for payers, reliable referrals for providers, and excellent care for patients. Votive Health acts as a conduit, removing the barriers between cost and care so people living with complex and serious illness can focus on living and their providers can focus on caring.

Scott is a 57-year-old former timber worker, father, and husband who cares for his wife Anne. He also has metastatic lung cancer which causes him pain, breathlessness, and financial distress. Last year he had a two-week hospital stay 500 miles away from home and then an unwanted skilled nursing stay. But now, with Votive Health’s help, they can have complex care at home, providing an extra layer of support when they need it most. This means more time where he’s most comfortable (and needed), less pain and stress, support for his wife, and better communication with and among his providers. The whole family is better off as a result.
