PWJ1 - Becoming the Nerds Our Patients Need Us to Be in Value-Based Care

Session Description: As the healthcare system pivots toward value-based care, primary care clinicians—especially those in safety net settings—are uniquely positioned to lead this transformation. In this energizing and insightful session, Integrated Health Partners of Southern California invites attendees to embrace their inner "nerd" by diving deep into the data, systems, and clinical strategies that drive better outcomes to make health primary for patients and communities.

Through stories, evidence, and practical frameworks, participants will explore how to:
- Champion primary care as the cornerstone of value-based care.
- Build a culture of quality improvement and “coop-etition” across organizations.
- Operationalize the Triple Aim + 1: improving care, cost, population health, and clinician joy.
- Leverage data, technology, and team-based care to drive fairness and innovation.
- Align mission with measurable impact through clinically integrated networks (CINs).

Whether you're a clinician, administrator, or change agent, this session will inspire you to become the leader your patients need—one who not only “gives a damn” but also knows how to measure it.
