Tallgrass Health Partners helps health plans, providers, and risk-bearing organizations design and run the value-based programs that actually move quality and cost.
Hands-on support across ACO strategy, payment model design, population health, and embedded advisory work.
Track selection, benchmark and financial modeling, governance design, and the operational build needed to run a Medicare or commercial ACO well — not just launch one.
Design and negotiation support for bundled payments, shared savings arrangements, and other APMs, grounded in direct CMS Innovation Center and payer-side experience.
Care management, risk stratification, and dual-eligible program design that connects clinical workflow to the financial model it's meant to support.
Embedded, on-demand support for health plans, provider groups, and consulting firms that need senior VBC expertise on a project or subcontract basis.
Isaac Burrows founded Tallgrass Health Partners after more than a decade leading value-based care strategy, ACO operations, and population health initiatives — including senior roles at the CMS Innovation Center (CMMI), VillageMD, Elevance Health, Cigna, and The Lewin Group.
That range — regulator, payer, and provider-side operator — is what Tallgrass brings to every engagement: strategy that's been tested against the realities of running the program, not just designing it.
Whether it's an ACO stand-up, an APM redesign, or on-demand and subcontract support on an existing team, Tallgrass Health Partners is ready to help.
