The behavioral health groups winning value-based contracts are the ones who can prove it.
Payers are shifting to value-based arrangements faster than most practices are ready for. Shared savings, pay-for-performance, and PMPM contracts all require one thing your current EHR can't give you: a clear, continuous picture of patient outcomes.

The shift is here
Value-based care is no longer a pilot program in behavioral health. Commercial payers, Medicaid managed care organizations, and integrated health systems are actively structuring contracts around measurable outcomes—not just visit volume.
React
Wait for contract renewals and scramble to find the data. Hope your EHR can export something useful.
Lead
Walk into every negotiation with longitudinal outcomes data already in hand. Negotiate from evidence, not reputation.
OutcomesAI puts you on the second path.
Quality Measures
NCQA and HEDIS-aligned measures,
tracked automatically
OutcomesAI maps directly to the clinical quality standards payers and health systems use to evaluate behavioral health performance.
Track PHQ-9 scores at every visit, measure remission rates across your patient population, and demonstrate depression response and remission at the thresholds payers recognize — 50% symptom reduction (response) and PHQ-9 < 5 (remission). DRR-E is an active NCQA HEDIS measure and an increasingly common VBC quality metric for commercial and Medicaid managed care contracts.
The GAD-7 is not currently a standalone HEDIS measure but is increasingly specified in commercial VBC arrangements and employer-sponsored behavioral health contracts as a standard anxiety outcome measure. Monitor anxiety trajectories over time and identify patients trending toward higher-cost care settings.
PCL-5 tracking positions your group for contracts with veteran populations, trauma-specialized programs, and payers building PTSD-specific quality metrics into their arrangements.
Standardized C-SSRS tracking demonstrates a systematic safety protocol across your entire organization — a differentiator in health system partnerships and an explicitly required screening component under the CMS Innovation in Behavioral Health (IBH) Model for participating practices.
Contract Negotiation
Stop negotiating on reputation. Start negotiating on evidence.
When you sit down with a payer or health system, OutcomesAI gives you the data they're asking for—before they ask.
Population-level outcomes data
Depression remission rates, anxiety response, risk trends across your entire patient panel.
Longitudinal tracking
Not just a snapshot — a continuous record of how your patients progress over time.
Benchmarking
Understand where your highest-performing providers and locations are driving results.
Contract-ready reporting
Export the exact metrics your payer needs, in the format they expect.
Built for behavioral health groups
OutcomesAI connects directly to your existing EHR—no rip and replace, no manual data entry. Your clinicians keep working the way they work. The outcomes intelligence layer runs in the background, aggregating data across every provider, every location, every visit.
For DSOs and multi-site groups, this means a unified view of performance across your entire organization—and the ability to identify which sites and providers are driving the best outcomes.
Value-based contracts reward the groups
who can prove their outcomes.
OutcomesAI makes that proof automatic.
No commitment. See results with your own data.
