Delaware Department of Insurance appoints Cristine Vogel

Delaware Department of Insurance has appointed Cristine Vogel as director of value-based health care delivery.

Vogel will lead the office of value-based health care delivery and establish, implement, and monitor affordability standards such as those to increase primary care investment, and manage the reporting of carrier investments in health care.

This will include assessing commercial reimbursement rates for primary and chronic care services, the role of price and utilisation in healthcare spending, and prescription drug spending as a driver of total cost of care.

Vogel has more than 25 years’ experience in healthcare management. Most recently she served as director of population health initiatives for Nuvance Health System in Connecticut, where she developed solutions to improve clinical outcomes, increase quality of care and control healthcare costs.

Her experience in healthcare reform also includes leading the State of Connecticut’s Office of Healthcare Access and evaluating Certificates of Need.

Delaware’s Insurance commissioner Trinidad Navarro says: “It is more important than ever before to ensure the accessibility and affordability of healthcare and prescriptions.

“Hospital prices, the cost of medications, and low-quality services all raise the price of consumer care and insurance coverage. With Cristine’s expertise on board, we can keep making progress toward higher-quality care at a lower cost.”

Vogel adds: “Delaware is taking on innovative efforts to address care quality and cost, and I’m proud to work with Commissioner Navarro to make these projects a success.”
