Highlighting quality driven issues and the power behind pay for performance and
value-based benefit designs, this book provides the knowledge to establish performance
based structures, such as quality measurement, incentive payment structure,
and incentive size, within an existing organization. Focusing on how to implement
new designs and how to create strategies to measure performance and
improve efficiency, it discusses how to create value and optimize payment and market
share, and describes the trade off of systems and IT investments by providers and payers to gain incremental
quality improvement.
