Introduction |
|
|
The objectives for the Pay for Performance (P4P) incentives and incentives developed by health plans are focused on driving the cost of providing care down and to keep the quality of care at the highest level possible. Reducing the number of brand drugs prescribed, patient's health maintenance for patients with chronic diseases (COPD, HBP, Diabetics, etc.), hospital days, emergency room visits and the patient satisfaction levels are a few of the indicators being measured today. |
