Purpose: Physicians are estimated to be responsible for more than 50% of national healthcare costs and hold the greatest potential to improve value by orchestrating quality-driven programs to reduce unnecessary practices and variability. A physician's ability to practice cost-conscious care has been linked to their training, underscoring the importance of integrating cost-conscious practice into training.
Methods: The High Value Practice Academic Alliance was formed to help advance the value-improvement work of individual institutions through a national organization.

This study aimed to (1) evaluate national trends in discharge disposition and postoperative outcomes after THA, (2) compare discharge cohorts on episode-of-care parameters, and (3) determine predictors of nonhome discharge from 2011 to 2021.
Methods: The National Surgical Quality Improvement Program database was queried for THA data from 2011 to 2021.

Department of Orthopedic Surgery, Mayo Clinic, Phoenix, AZ, USA.
Background: Value-based care payment and delivery models such as the recently implemented Merit-based Incentive Payment System (MIPS) aim to both provide better care for patients and reduce costs of care. Gender disparities across orthopaedic surgery, encompassing reimbursement, industry payments, referrals, and patient perception, have been thoroughly studied over the years, with numerous disparities identified. However, differences in MIPS performance based on orthopaedic surgeon gender have not been comprehensively evaluated.
