The Global Enablers Community for Value in Healthcare

Introducing the 
Global Enablers Community

Most countries with developed economies are nearing the limit of what they can afford to spend on healthcare. Demand for care is increasing as new treatments come to the market with the rising incidence of non-communicable diseases, increases in life expectancy, growing shortages of a skilled healthcare workforce, and changing demographics. Current healthcare delivery in many cases is fragmented, siloed, and create bottlenecks in improving real healthcare value and outcomes for patients. 

The Global Enablers Community was created to be accessible to global healthcare stakeholders and influencers to accelerate regional, national, and sub-national public-private partnerships and sharing of best practices and learnings. The Community focus on the thematic exploration of 5 key areas of focus as shown in the framework on the picture below.

The Purpose of the 
Global Enablers Community

The purpose of the Global Enablers Community network is to foster collaboration and accelerate the pace of transformation and support continuous learning and improvement through an evidence-based approach to drive the agenda for a value-based health system transformation. The community will accelerate the pace of change by:

The five targeted levers of value-based healthcare are: payments, informatics, benchmarking research and tools, care delivery models, and policy.  A cross-sectoral Global Enablers Community will be developed for each enabler.
