As part of the Ministry of Health’s “Three Beyonds”, all Public Healthcare Institutions in Singapore have been ramping up their efforts towards Value-Driven Care (VDC). Popularized in Michael Porter’s now landmark article in the 2013 issue of the Harvard Business Review, VDC (also known as Value-Based Healthcare) provides a holistic framework for the evaluation and improvement of patient care.

VDC adopts a patient-focused view of care, relying on both Clinical Outcomes and Cost (hence Value) metrics to provide timely and consistent feedback to all care providers, including Nurses.

In this presentation, we reflect on our VDC journey and share about how we can all leverage VDC to enhance Value for our Patients.
