In this episode from Becker’s 2025 Annual Meeting, Dr. Sanjay Doddamani, Founder and CEO of Guidehealth, joins Erica Carbajal to challenge the idea of replacing fee-for-service outright. Instead, he advocates a more pragmatic path—tying fee-based payments to outcomes (FFO rather than FFS) and enabling them to coexist with two-sided value-based models to accelerate adoption beyond traditional structures. The conversation explores how health systems can leverage data, aligned incentives, and AI-powered care navigation to improve outcomes while maintaining financial flexibility. Tune in for a clear-eyed look at how coexistence—not replacement—is key to accelerating the shift to value.
