Frequently Asked Questions About Care Coordination in Value-based Care

How does care coordination improve patient outcomes?

Care coordination improves patient outcomes through a more personalized approach to patient care, helping patients manage chronic conditions, transitions of care, or comprehensive primary care needs.

How is care coordination used in value-based care programs?

Accountable Care Organizations use care coordinators to manage the patient needs of their population. The care coordinators use population health analytics to segment the population by patient health conditions. The care coordinators work with healthcare providers and patients to reduce fragmentation and coordinate high-quality care.

What is the best practice for coordinating care against the ACO network of healthcare providers who manage the care needs for the care plan?

ACOs must capture all the patient interventions across their populations in their population health analytics solution to improve health outcomes, manage effective care, and reduce overall healthcare costs.

Care Coordination
For ACOs

Coordinate care across providers, close gaps, and ensure timely, effective interventions.

For ACOs operating under shared savings and quality benchmarks, care coordination is essential to improving performance. It connects population health insight to action by helping teams manage care across providers and settings. But fragmented data and disconnected workflows can make it difficult to prioritize outreach, align on next steps, and follow through consistently. Koan Health helps turn insight into coordinated, data-driven action.

What Is Care Coordination?

Care coordination is the process of organizing patient care activities across providers, settings, and time so patients receive appropriate, timely, and effective care.

For ACOs and value-based care organizations, care coordination includes identifying patients who need intervention, addressing care gaps, and ensuring follow-through on care plans. In day-to-day operations, it means making sure the right follow-up happens after a hospitalization, specialist visit, or other key transition in care.

Why Care Coordination Breaks Down in Practice

Care coordination often breaks down at the point of execution. Care teams may know which patients need attention, but without shared visibility and clear workflows, outreach is delayed, follow-up is inconsistent, and tasks fall through the cracks. Disconnected systems and manual processes make it harder to coordinate across providers and act at scale.

 

Many organizations also lack visibility into whether interventions were completed or effective. That leaves care coordination incomplete and creates missed opportunities to improve outcomes and performance in value-based care.

What You Can Do with
Care Coordination

Identify patients who need intervention sooner

Recognize which patients need attention based on care needs, risk, and utilization patterns—particularly high-risk patients with chronic conditions—so care teams can act earlier and more effectively.

Prioritize outreach and care management efforts

Focus care coordinators on the patients, conditions, and transitions that require the most immediate follow-up, helping teams use time and resources more strategically.

Improve coordination across providers and settings

Strengthen alignment across primary care, specialists, and care teams so patients experience more connected, consistent care throughout their journey.

Support gap closure and quality improvement

Address care gaps more proactively and support quality improvement initiatives with a clearer view of where intervention is needed most, aligned with quality measures reporting.

Track progress and improve care coordination performance

Monitor care coordination efforts over time to understand what is working, where follow-up is needed, connecting to broader financial analytics.
