For health systems in value-based arrangements, specialty care is where financial exposure quietly accumulates: eroding RAF scores, driving avoidable utilization, and weakening your position at every contract renewal. In a single year, one organization traced more than $10 million in losses to three structural failure points inside specialty workflows.
At Innovaccer's Xccelerate 2026, senior leaders from Penn Medicine, Children's Mercy Health Network, and CareQuest Institute, collectively managing 750,000+ risk-based lives, shared what they are doing to close the gap.
What You'll Learn
- Where the $10M+ in annual losses are hiding inside specialty care workflows, and how to quantify your own exposure
- Why data sharing and technology access alone didn't move the needle, and what actually changed outcomes
- How one health system built pay-for-performance agreements directly with specialists to create population-level accountability
- The case for medical-dental integration and why oral health remains a largely overlooked gap in the care continuum, driving $4 billion in avoidable ED costs annually
- What accountability infrastructure looks like at organizations that have strengthened payer contracts and stabilized performance
