Houston-based OrthoLoneStar has teamed up with Greenwich, Conn.-based Cedar Gate Technologies to bring a value-based care program for spine and orthopedic care in Texas.
OrthoLoneStar will focus on reducing the cost of care through value-based care delivery and a prospective bundled payment program, according to an Oct. 28 news release.
Cedar Gate has more than three decades of experience creating and managing bundled payment agreements. In similar arrangements from Cedar Gate, patient outcomes and costs improved.
"This new value-based care program opens up the opportunity for employers and payers to join us in our mission to deliver exceptional care experiences to Texas patients," J. Bryan Williamson, MD, OrthoLoneStar's medical director said in a news release.
