At more than $3 trillion per year, U.S. health care spending is a hefty financial burden, demonstrating the need for a more cost- and resource-effective solution. Designed to replace the traditional fee-for-service approach that compensates care providers for the number of services they deliver, the value-based model is emerging as a preferred model that pays providers according to the results of their care. As the health care system shifts toward this approach, there is a growing need for efficient technology platforms and big data analytics that can help curtail rising medical costs and make the overall system more efficient. Leading industry players such as ORHub, Inc. (ORHB) (ORHub Profile), International Business Machines Corp. (IBM) and its IBM Watson Health division, General Electric Company’s (GE) GE Healthcare subsidiary, Cerner Corp. (CERN), and Cognizant Technology Solutions Corp. (CTSH) are doing just that.
The increasingly popular value-based care model takes center stage when it comes to ORHub, Inc.’s (ORHB) (ORHub Profile) revolutionary platform. Developed specifically for surgery management, ORHub’s innovative platform moves away from manual systems traditionally used for handling surgery-related operations, as well as from the most common electronic health records (EHR) solutions.

About ORHub, Inc.
ORHub is a cloud-based software platform focused on delivering value-based medicine in surgical care. The company enables all parties involved in surgical care to work together to organize, deliver, measure and reimburse in a single uniform process. This allows for significant decreases in cost and improvement in outcomes by eliminating inefficiencies, duplication of effort, and errors and omissions that result from siloed processes in software and poor handoffs from one part of the care process to another.
The need for ORHub is clear. Health care comprises more than 17% of US GDP at over $3 trillion per year. With costs rising every year due to an aging population and more expensive treatments, providers are under severe pressure to become more efficient and reduce costs from payers who are aggressively reducing reimbursements and finally moving away from fee-for-service and toward performance-based reimbursement. ORHub enables providers to thrive in this new environment by addressing the single largest segment of health care, which is surgical care. ORHub replaces numerous legacy systems with a 360 degree system that is focused on tracking cost from diagnosis to discharge centered on treating a patient for a specific condition. ORHub has offices at Phoenix, Arizona; Newport Beach, California; and Bellevue, Washington. For more information, visit www.orhub.com
