New research explores the evolving landscape, key investment priorities, and adoption barriers shaping value-based care in the U.S.
Innovaccer Inc., a leading healthcare AI company, in collaboration with the National Association of ACOs (NAACOS), today announced the release of their joint report, “The State and Science of Value-Based Care 2025.” Based on a nationwide survey of 168 healthcare leaders across 142 organizations, the study uncovers the progress, pain points, and investment signals driving value-based care (VBC) strategies forward.
As the healthcare industry moves toward outcomes-based models, 64% of surveyed organizations expect a positive revenue shift from value-based care in 2025, marking a sharp increase in confidence despite ongoing structural and operational challenges.
“As the shift to value-based care accelerates, the research highlights a critical truth: successful transformation demands more than just intent, it requires deep investments in data, technology, and partnerships,” said Abhinav Shashank, cofounder and CEO of Innovaccer. “This joint report with NAACOS provides clarity and direction for healthcare leaders navigating the complexities of modern reimbursement models.”
Key findings in the report include:
- 64% of healthcare organizations expect higher VBC-driven revenue in 2025 compared to 2024.
- 87% of respondents cite financial risk as the top barrier to adoption, followed by provider readiness (80%), lack of interoperability (75%), and high technology cost (67%).
- 74% say greater financial support and incentives would significantly accelerate adoption.
- 70% express optimism about AI’s role in enabling predictive analytics and scaling VBC strategies.
“At the foundation of accountable care and population health management lies the strategic use of integrated data that drives insights and action,” said Emily D. Brower, President and CEO of NAACOS. “This comprehensive approach enables a deeper understanding of community, population, and individual patient needs. This report highlights how technology, collaboration, and infrastructure can support providers in accountable care to drive innovation in care delivery.”
The report also highlights how high-performing organizations are laying the foundation for long-term VBC success through unified data platforms, advanced analytics, and integrated care delivery solutions.
