Current incentives Pay the same for unequal quality services Consumers have no information and no
incentive to choose higher quality/higher efficiency service providers
Encourages overuse, misuse of services Higher spending not correlated with higher
quality Higher spending not correlated with better
patient satisfaction
![Page 14: Paying for Quality Health Care: States’ Roles March 24, 2011 New Hampshire General Court Concord NH Ellen Andrews, PhD Health Policy Consultant](https://reader031.vdocuments.mx/reader031/viewer/2022032803/56649e215503460f94b0df0a/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
Fee-for-service misaligned incentivesFee for service encourages:
More services Less coordination Incentives for duplication Few incentives for prevention Stifles innovation Only pays for selected services - not email, group
visits, phone calls No link to quality Incentives to increase high profit services/patients
and avoid low profit

Value-based purchasing Rewards better outcomes Payments based on quality and efficiency of
care Data driven Remove incentives for more services Flexibility for providers to customize care Reward patient satisfaction Remove fragmentation and conflicting
incentives Align provider, payer and consumer incentives
to reward quality, effectiveness and efficiency

Consumers support value-based purchasing 95% of Americans feel it is important to have
information about the quality of care provided by different doctors and hospitals
88% feel it is important that they have information about the costs of care to them before they actually get care

Federal VBP Strong feature in national reform
Innovation Center, waivers ACOs Comparative effectiveness research Medicare and Medicaid bundled payment pilots
Medicare 23 programs – P4P, pay for reporting, never events,
medical home, gain sharing, removing regulatory barriers, e-prescribing, data aggregation
Premiere Demonstration – hospital P4P Physician Group Demonstration Implementing differential payments based on

trust protections

Lessons from others Collaborate first Go slowly Start small and with strongest partners Coordinate across payers -- standardize Fair and open process Everyone on same page, all have same understanding Be clear on goals, single-minded dedication Strong consumer education piece necessary Plan for transitions Don’t underestimate the power of disclosure and
transparency, often stronger motivator than $$$ Be brave The time is right for transforming delivery and payment
systems – the status quo is not sustainable
