Value-based care includes reducing costs, improving patient and population outcomes, and increasing patient and consumer satisfaction. Value-based care should focus on quality improvement and remain patient-centered. Ex: when a disease can be prevented, rather than treated, value increases.

Instructions

Value-Based Nursing Care Readiness Assessment

DEFINED NEED	Yes	No
Has your organization established a need to implement value-based nursing care strategies?	☐	X
READINESS FOR CHANGE
Is now the right time for implementing value-based nursing care (e.g., it will not compete with other major changes currently being made within the organization)?	X	☐
Have employees been informed of the recommendations and been provided an opportunity to comment on the feasibility of the change?	X	☐
Have implementation plans been developed that include an action plan, training plan, and communication and change management plans?	X	☐
Does the organization have a Health Information System that has the capacity to collect, analyze and report value metrics and key performance indicators that link nursing care services to patient outcomes?	X	☐

Does the organization’s leadership reward teamwork behaviors and showcase successes throughout the organization?	X	☐
Have the strategic recommendations the interprofessional team developed been approved by organizational leaders and managers?	☐	X
TIME, RESOURCES, PERSONNEL
Has an Impact Analysis been completed to determine the influence this change will have on human and financial resources?	☐	X

Count the number of “Yes” responses and refer to the next page to determine the organization’s level of readiness for value-based nursing care.

READINESS ASSESSMENT SCORE

Number of Yes responses you have selected is 11-15 out of 15:

This is likely a good time within your organization to participate in the Value-Based Nursing Care Project. Prior to implementation, continue to monitor whether the answers to these questions change and keep a close eye on any items to which you answered “No.”

Number of Yes responses you have selected is 6-10 out of 15:

Your organization may not be ready on several of the factors. This reduces the likelihood of the success of implementing Value-based Nursing Care at this time.

Number of Yes responses you have selected is 1-5 out of 15:

Based on your responses, significant work is likely needed to raise the readiness level of your organization. Moving forward with implementing Value-Based Nursing Care could create significant risk that it will not succeed or produce the desired results. VBC Readiness Assessment Paper
