Navigating the Complexities of Health Care
In a shifting health care landscape, providers and policymakers are working to balance cost savings with high-quality care. Many health systems struggle to align financial incentives, reduce administrative burden, and ensure long-term sustainability. Without the right data, strategies, and expertise, it can be difficult to ensure that programs drive real impact while remaining practical for providers and scalable across populations.
Expert Health Care Evaluation for Lasting Impact
Navigating the complexities of health care evaluation can be challenging. RTI International partners with organizations to provide expertise in assessing and refining health care models and programs. Our extensive experience in leading large-scale evaluations—including the Financial Alignment Initiative, the Initiative to Reduce Avoidable Hospitalizations among Nursing Facility Residents, the Frontier Community Health Integration Project, and the Medicare Diabetes Prevention Program—gives us valuable insights into what works, what doesn’t, and how to enhance programs for better outcomes.
We understand our clients’ financial and operational challenges. By working closely with our health care clients, we streamline data collection and reporting processes, measure quality improvements, and address any issues that arise. Our goal is to ensure that clients’ programs achieve their intended objectives and deliver lasting impact. With RTI’s comprehensive evaluation capabilities, clients can make data-driven decisions, optimize program performance, and improve patient outcomes.
State-Level Expertise and Multi-State Evaluation Capabilities
Each state has its own regulations, policies, and health care needs. Each evaluation requires tailored methodologies to fit the specific context of the state, ensuring that our assessments are accurate, relevant, and actionable.
For clients managing multi-state health care programs, the challenges of data integration, consistency, and scalability can be overwhelming. Streamlining data collection and reporting processes across different states ensures that data are accurate, consistent, and interoperable. Our advanced health information technology systems facilitate seamless data integration, providing clients with comprehensive insights that drive informed decision-making. RTI brings extensive experience in state-level evaluations, having successfully supported the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) and state Medicaid agencies through projects like State Innovation Models and Multi-Payer Advanced Primary Care Practice.
A Trusted Partner in Transforming Health Care
Health care leaders need more than reports—they need practical solutions that translate policy into practice. Whether launching a new model, refining an existing one, or evaluating long-term sustainability, RTI serves as a trusted partner in transforming health systems to support improved access, outcomes, and smarter spending.
