Value-Based Architecture for Healthcare

The Open Group® Healthcare Forum is now working on a Snapshot of what is intended to become its Value-Based Architecture™ or O-VBA™ for Healthcare standard.  The standard will offer Enterprise Architects working in healthcare delivery settings a reusable, extensible, and scalable tool for continuously improving the value and efficiency of patient-centered care.  It will apply to all medical specialties and clinical ecosystems.  Architects will be able to use the O-VBA for Healthcare standard to help create and sustain value-based healthcare systems.
