Walmart: Friend or foe to hospitals?
Becker's Hospital Review
|
Summary
Walmart partners with Orlando Health for patient care in Walmart's eight health centers in the Orlando area. This collaboration aims at effective patient care transitions and improved value-based outcomes, with no monetary transactions involved. Healthcare leaders express potential growth in new patients and high-quality, low-cost outcomes through such partnerships. Comparatively, One Medical collaborates with health systems, reimbursing them for care delivery and collecting patient visit fees. Walmart's move, deemed as a catalyst for care delivery innovation, is also deemed an opportunity to enhance health and reduce healthcare costs for Walmart's 1.6 million employees, the nation's largest private workforce.
