Integration of APPs to improve revenue
Many systems are refining the way in which advanced practice providers (APPs) are utilized. Ten years ago, the solution was simply to hire more APPs, which worked in many markets. Now, however, systems are looking at utilizing a team-based care model that effectively uses each provider at the top of their scope of practice.
The right people, the right process, the right care
APPs are an integral part of the clinical team and these roles will continue to grow and expand. Health care organizations benefit from supporting APPs and physicians to work at the top of their scope of practice allowing patients to receive effective and efficient care which is essential to meeting today’s value-based health care demands.
A data-driven approach
Identify opportunities for improvement within your organizational structure and operations. Improving the utilization of your workforce and streamlining processes enables you to succeed in the current value-based care landscape. In addition, peer-to-peer resources and networking opportunities provide meaningful solutions to optimize the clinical team and its care delivery model.

The Vizient Center for Advancing Provider Practices (CAP2™) was the first of its kind — a solution focused on optimizing APPs. The program helped organizations understand where and how APPs were being utilized, and identified practice variations. It also helped organizations develop APP leadership structures to provide professional development and representation for this rapidly growing group of professionals.
