Early praise for INSPIREd Healthcare: A Value-Based Care Coordination Model
“INSPIREd Healthcare is a brilliant case study in ‘hope’ for the American healthcare system. Billie Allard and her team have creatively hacked through the thicket of financial reimbursement, bureaucracy, and culture to forge a clear path to value-based, quality care. Follow them!”
–Kathleen Bartholomew, MN, RN
Nurse Leader, Author, and Speaker
“Nurses represent the largest segment of the healthcare workforce and are present in almost every environment in which healthcare is delivered. For true healthcare reform to take place, nurses must be active co-leaders, and the INSPIRE Model demonstrates this leadership. This well-organized book, full of resources, will guide you in using clear recommendations and best practices, with real examples that lead to impressive results. An inspiring book by a truly remarkable nurse leader.”
–Amanda Stefancyk Oberlies, PhD, MBA, RN

As healthcare costs continue to outpace the economy, healthcare systems are shifting from fee-for-service to a value-based payment system to deliver high-quality care and reduce costs. This shift presents an opportunity for nurses to take the lead in transforming care delivery and improve patient experience while reducing costs.
Filled with practical content for both clinical and academic settings, INSPIREd Healthcare follows author Billie Lynn Allard and her team of nurses as they successfully implement an accountable community of health in pursuit of the Triple Aim goals: improving patient experience of care, improving health of populations, and reducing per capita healthcare costs. The INSPIRE Model they follow provides an evidence-based blueprint for other healthcare systems hoping to solve the complicated problems surrounding care transitions and health promotion.
“There is a pathway to success for value-based payment that empowers nurses to take the reins to deliver value based, person-centered care,” said author Billie Lynn Allard, MS, RN, FAAN. “It will be the most rewarding work of your career!”
