The Utah Partnership for Value-driven Health Care (UPV) exists to maximize the availability and accuracy of value information to facilitate better healthcare decision making.
Community Role
The Utah Partnership for Value-driven Health Care (UPV) works through a collaborative. Partners come to the table to identify needed changes to the healthcare system. The work of the UPV is accomplished through Task Forces around each of the four cornerstones.
National Initiative: Chartered Value Exchanges
The Utah Partnership for Value-driven Health Care (UPV) is one of the first 14 Chartered Value Exchanges in the U.S. In February 2008, former U.S. Health and Human Services Secretary Michael Leavitt was in Salt Lake City to offer a charter to UPV and encouraged the Partnership to work toward greater transparency and value in health care.
