Annual Paying for Value Survey
The Washington State Health Care Authority (HCA) is seeking provider input on their annual Paying for Value survey. To better understand your needs, HCA is requesting your participation in a survey on the use of value-based purchasing (VBP) arrangements among Washington State providers. This survey will provide valuable insight into the challenges you face as you consider adopting new payment arrangements. The survey will also guide us in supporting you. Find more information here.
Surveys need to be completed by 5:00 pm on Monday, August 31.
Feedback request: Behavioral Health Access Report draft
On June 17, BHT hosted a forum to introduce the draft Behavioral Health Access Report, produced for BHT by our partners at Providence CORE and Community Health Strategies LLC.
The report is designed for providers, policymakers, advocates, and other stakeholders to increase their understanding of the behavioral health care system in the BHT region and the issues affecting access to care for individuals with mental health and substance use disorders.
DRAFT Behavioral Health Access Report
We are looking for feedback on a few specific areas, but welcome any thoughts, comments, and questions.
-
Audience: who could you imagine sharing this kind of information with? What specific information or stories to highlight? Or data gaps to call out?
-
What specific information, stories, or key points should an audience hear?
-
What opportunities do you see from this report? (e.g. policy, regional coordination, etc.)
Please email sarah@betterhealthtogether.org with any feedback by Weds, July 1.

Message from Hadley Morrow, Director of Equity & Engagement – April 17, 2020
BHT is grateful to everyone who took time to attend one of our listening sessions and share with us how their new day-to-day is looking. Your time is helping inform BHT’s exploration of how we can best be of support in this time. If you did not get to attend a listening session, you are welcome to reach out to any BHT staff to request a check-in. We are posting these notes so that you can all see a record of what partners shared, and follow up with requests or opportunities to support one another. We’re all in this together! (While staying at home, far away from one another…)
