In a new article, Grupo IAG Saúde shares its experience implementing ICHOM Sets of Patient-Centered Outcome Measures across Brazil, offering a candid look at what it takes to operationalize outcomes measurement at scale.

From technology integration and cost intelligence to leadership alignment and closing the "knowing-doing gap," the article explores the practical challenges and lessons learned in advancing value-based healthcare implementation.

For organizations looking to move from measuring outcomes to acting on them, this is a valuable real-world perspective on what successful implementation can look like.

Bangkok Dusit Medical Services (BDMS) is continuing to push value-based healthcare forward on a global scale 🌐

In 2025, hospitals across the BDMS network achieved multiple landmark ICHOM Accreditations, including the world’s first Level 2 Accreditations in Coronary Artery Disease, Stroke, and Breast Cancer.
