Value and Sustainability Model (VSM)
Several tools have been designed to guide electronic HIE sustainability efforts. One widely accepted tool is the Value and Sustainability Model (VSM), which was developed by the eHealth Initiative in collaboration with Department of Health and Human Services.
The purpose of the VSM is to help communities develop sustainability plans based on the unique and specific needs of their providers and stakeholders. The VSM model consists of four key sustainability tools:
- A market-readiness assessment tool;
- A tool for estimating the value created by any electronic HIE network;
- A tool to estimate investor risk, community electronic HIE returns, and levels of electronic HIE subsidization; and
- A business plan pro forma, complete with interactive electronic HIE financial statements.
IHIE, HealthBridge, and HVHIE participated in the empirical research development of VSM.
