Value Based Care in VTE

Value-Based Care for the Evaluation and Management of Venous Thromboembolism

This session, recorded at the 2023 Vascular Scientific Sessions, provides all the tools to develop a comprehensive, patient-centered venous thromboembolism program. This one-hour program will provide a background on VTE related to its prevalence, morbidity, mortality, cost to healthcare, and society in general. It will also provide validated tools to improve patient care, mortality, and quality of life and reduce costs through value-based care models. The program will also provide value-based care models for chronic long-term complications and sequelae of VTE. The goal is to provide an intersection between healthcare economics and providing state-of-the-care for patients with VTE.
