Costs Of Care

Affordability moonshot: the affordability moonshot is a movement to improve patient affordability so that no one should have to choose between their life and their life savings. We are informed by outputs from our previous affordability accelerator, which convened influential experts and stakeholders to work together on developing and disseminating the most promising high-impact and sustainable interventions to improve patient affordability. We utilize our outputs to continue to cultivate change agents who will lead the creation of a more affordable and equitable health system. Our moonshot work includes costs of care fellowships for healthcare providers interested in working with national leaders to promote discussion, training, and dissemination efforts to improve the delivery of more affordable and value-based healthcare. The 2024 fellowship cycle provided 3 such healthcare providers the opportunity to work closely with the costs of care team to move forward research related to high-value care and affordability. Recruitment for the 2025 fellowship cycle will see 2 such healthcare providers interested in moving forward high-value care and affordability in surgical and oncological practices.
