OTI's overarching goal is to identify and implement actionable, tangible improvements in the daily operations of HHS staff, which in turn improves service delivery outcomes and enhances the health and safety of Texans.

Health care experts see fee-for-service payment models. Therefore, the current health care quality strategy is moving away from evaluating and compensating health care providers based on the volume of services delivered, to that based on the value of care they provide. Consequently, the state's contract with Medicaid managed care organizations (MCOs) and dental maintenance organizations (DMOs), requires these entities to develop alternative payment models (APMs) between them and their health care providers to encourage innovation, quality improvement and efficiency. The goal is to focus on quality of care and not on volume, within a value-based care (VBC) system.
