Jake Grundstein credits the Value Institute not only with highlighting the benefit of measuring outcomes, but specifically with helping him understand the importance of focusing on the outcomes that matter most to patients.

After receiving his master’s degree, Mr. Grundstein became the Vice President of Clinical Operations and Value-Based Care at Limber Health, a musculoskeletal health platform offering a range of services from digital home-exercise to data analytics for providers, payers, and employers.

At Limber, Mr. Grundstein built a Medicare-approved Qualified Clinical Data Registry that the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services recognized as a business committed to improving health care quality. Subsequently, he created an episode-based musculoskeletal payment model accepted by Maryland Medicare’s Episode Quality Improvement Program.

“I talked with people at the Value Institute when designing those,” he remembered. “Now, Limber is expanding on the registry to build an outcomes platform based on data from across organizations that will be actionable for clinicians and improve patient care.”

When I design these different programs, I’m always thinking about how to get the patient voice involved, and how to wrap patients in the services they need to help them. And the patients love it.
