What is the Health Rosetta Model?

Health Rosetta is a framework designed to help employers, health plans, and clinicians reduce costs and improve patient care quality.

While you are working on the Direct Care model, you are often on the frontlines of patient care, striving to provide the best possible outcomes with the resources available. 

Navigating the complexities of healthcare delivery can be challenging, but there is a model designed to simplify and enhance this process - the Health Rosetta Model. 

Let’s dive into what it is and how it can benefit your practice.

Understanding the Health Rosetta Model

The Health Rosetta Model aims to align incentives, improve outcomes, and reduce costs by adopting proven practices and strategies. The model serves as a guide for employers, health plans, and clinicians to deliver high-quality, affordable care.

Here is a TedTalk that Dave Chase, co-founder of the Health Rosetta, did as soon as he launched it. With “Healthcare Stole the American Dream - Here’s How We Take it Back" he discussed how the high costs and systemic issues in the American healthcare system have negatively impacted the financial stability and well-being of many citizens. 

The video likely outlines the challenges people face, such as medical debt and limited access to affordable care, and proposes solutions or strategies to reform the system and restore the American Dream.

The Five Steps to Adopting the Health Rosetta

Here are the five important steps the Health Rosetta Model suggests to follow:

  1. Learn to escape the status quo - the way it has always been is not working for most Americans.
  2. Optimize healthcare plans by working with transparent and aligned benefit advisors and claims administrators to serve the businesses and the people who make it possible. 
  3. Carve out Pharmacy Benefit Manager - you can slash healthcare spending by partnering with a trusted PBM operating in a transparent and ethical manner. 
  4. Add value-based primary care to improve health outcomes by making primary care primary again. This reduces unnecessary ER visits, inappropriate prescriptions, and avoidable risk treatments. 
  5. Leave Preferred Provider Organization networks behind and instead make it easy and free for your members to see health professionals who provide the best outcomes at the lowest costs.

“All these solutions to fix healthcare have already been invented and proven. It is just common sense and it just takes some will. So if you’re an employee, let your CEO know there is a way to slash healthcare costs while improving benefits. If you are a business leader, it is time to ignore the so-called experts and apply the same discipline to healthcare that you do to all other major purchases in your business. If you're a union leader, there's never been a better time to take a fresh look at how you address your benefits.”Dave ChaseCreator of the Health Rosetta

Enabling Tech Binds Components Together

Here, you can explore how the foundational components of Health Rosetta-style benefits stack up. These elements include (1) Transparent Open Networks, (2) Patient Stewardship, (3) Value-Based Primary Care, (4) Active Independent Plan Management, (5) Transparent Pharmacy Benefits, (6) Major Specialties & Outlier Patients, and (7) Transparent Advisor Relationships.

Implementing the Health Rosetta Model in Your Practice

To integrate the Health Rosetta Model into your practice, consider the following steps:

Educate Yourself and Your Team

Understanding the principles and benefits of the model is the first step. Training sessions and workshops can help your team get on board.

Adopt Direct Care

Transitioning to a Direct Primary Care or Direct Specialty Care models can reduce your administrative load and allow more time for patient care. This shift can lead to more meaningful patient interactions and better outcomes.

Focus on Value-Based Care

Evaluate your current care delivery model and identify opportunities to transition to value-based care. This may involve adopting new technologies or rethinking your approach to patient care.

Enhance Transparency

Make pricing and processes transparent to your patients. Clear communication builds trust and empowers patients to make informed decisions about their health.

Strengthen Employer Relationships

Foster strong partnerships with employers to ensure the seamless integration of the Health Rosetta Model into their health benefit strategies. Implement strategies to increase employee involvement in health programs, leading to better health outcomes and lower costs.
