In episode 1 of A Slice of Value, Adam Whitlock speaks with Dr. Jason Lofton of Lofton Family Practice. Dr. Lofton has been practicing for 16 years in De Queen, Arkansas and has been in value-based care for over a decade. He serves as a local medical director of Aledade and believes that value-based care is the way healthcare is going.

In this episode, Dr. Lofton shares his perspective as a small independent practice on how you can do things differently all while benefitting your patients and practice financially. Value-based programs, such as Primary Care First, have allowed Dr. Lofton to work smarter not harder. He is excited to see what the future of value-based care holds and all that it is doing to advance care for patients and practices.
