Total Cost of Care
Designed to support affordability initiatives, to identify instances of overuse and inefficiency, and to highlight cost-saving opportunities.
HealthPartners’ Total Cost of Care and Resource Use (TCOC) framework addresses one of the most fundamental problems related to population health: rising health care costs. It is a full-population, person-centered measurement tool that accounts for 100% of the care provided to a patient. Additionally, it supplies a reporting suite to support multiple levels of analysis.

Our measures were reviewed and deemed credible by the National Quality Forum’s (NQF) independent statistical consultant.
Tools help providers, payers, employers, researchers, and government entities to evaluate the costs and resources used to treat varying populations.
