As healthcare translational researchers, Dr. Hibay employs measurement and performance improvement sciences to value-based care (VBC) and accountability activities, imploring that complex healthcare delivery must be tailored to "meet the patients where they are", rather than implementing ineffective one-size-fits-all models. Care delivery excellence considers the special needs of vulnerable populations and social determinants of health that inhibit equitable patient-centric care access and delivery. Accountability must also incorporate the provider characteristics and available services, as well as the community resources where care is received. In 2010, she began working with federal partners, measure developers, medical societies, providers, and interested stakeholders to develop, implement and support endorsement of measures into appropriate measure programs and payment model, juxtaposing the needs of clinicians and the national goal of transforming healthcare into a value-based industry.
