“You show me the incentive and I’ll show you the behavior,” says Sach Jain, founder and CEO of Carrum Health. Jain joins Bloomberg Intelligence analyst Jonathan Palmer to explain why misaligned incentives sit at the heart of specialty care’s cost problem. Jain details how Carrum built a value-based marketplace around curated centers of excellence, surgeon-level quality data, bundled payments and provider risk, giving employers more predictable costs while offering patients a guided care path with fewer surprise bills. He also discusses specialty care’s $2.5 trillion annual spending, Carrum’s reach across almost 7 million lives, its expanding health-plan partnerships and why AI can either intensify the fee-for-service arms race or help providers prevent complications when incentives are aligned.
