Fostering the Next Generation of Human and Social Service Providers

Build resilience, respond to an evolving funding landscape, and enhance sustainability and scalability of programs that address health-related social needs or deliver whole-person care

How We Help

Our team partners with human and social service providers to design, capitalize, and scale high-impact programs and services. We support sustainability-focused program design and development by strengthening and quantifying program value proposition, identifying potential financing solutions, and collaborating to attract external financial support from the large and expanding pool of health plans, health systems, and investors seeking both social and financial returns. QV Health Solutions brings expertise in payment model design, alternative-payment model contract development, and all elements of the related organizational infrastructure build.

  • “Neighborhood Service Organization is thrilled to have worked alongside the QV Health Solutions team to develop a novel value-based financing structure to launch a best-in-class medical respite program serving unhoused people in Southeast Michigan. We combined NSO’s strong track record in social services and deep knowledge of Detroit with QVHS’s expertise in building healthcare partnerships that catalyze impact to design a solution that meets a critical need in our community. QV’s approach ensured that our initial value-based contract with Molina Healthcare of Michigan is replicable, which streamlines contracting with other Medicaid Managed Care Organizations in Michigan to grow the NSO medical respite program. We’re proud to see Detroit leading the way on the medical respite model and we believe this solution is one that is scalable and can bring value to communities of all sizes throughout the U.S. ”

  • “The amount of need within communities we serve has been increasing year over year and became especially acute during the pandemic. We stretch every one of our dollars to meet the needs of the community and pay our staff a fair wage for the demanding, important work they do. One of the only ways to enhance services that meet increased community need is through value-based arrangements and the shared understanding that there is tremendous opportunity within the health system to provide for better outcomes and better cost solutions. But first we have to think differently about the system and the role of community-based organizations in the system. This only gets done with strong partners like the QV Health Solutions team, Humana, and Volunteers of America bringing their best skills and attributes to the table and working with one another to achieve the system transformation we seek. One of the things I appreciate most about our partnership with the QV Health Solutions team is our shared mission – at the end of the day we are focused on providing services to support healthy individuals and healthy communities.”

  • “Authentic relationships and a persistent sense of community are absolutely essential to the success of Turnaround Tuesday. Those things are hard to scale with fidelity. The QV Health Solutions team took the time to experience our movement and what makes it uniquely impactful. From there, they developed an ambitious yet attainable long-range vision for growth and a concrete 2-year action plan to move us towards that vision. They did so in a way that rigorously considered business and financial realities while prioritizing our key pillars. The action plan has been our roadmap ever since, driving growth and sustainability across the organization. ”
