In health care delivery, pay for performance, also called incentive reimbursement, is "a scheme which provides reimbursement for the health services rendered, generally by an institution, and which provides added financial rewards if certain conditions are met. Such a scheme is intended to promote and reward increased efficiency and cost containment, with better care, or at least without adverse effect on the quality of the care rendered."[1]
Pay for performance is an important component of health care reform.
Studies of effectiveness
Controlled studies show conflicting results.[2][3]
| Trial | Hospitals | Intervention | Comparison | Outcome | Results | Comment | |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Intervention | Control | ||||||
| Sutton et al[2] 2012 |
24 English hospitals compared to 132 control hospitals U.K. |
Bonuses averaged $312,000 "hospital leadership agreed to invest awarded money internally toward efforts to improve clinical care" U.K. |
No intervention | 30-day in-hospital mortality for patients admitted for pneumonia, heart failure, or acute myocardial infarction | Baseline: 20.9% Follow-up: 20.1% |
Baseline: 13.1% Follow-up: 12.1% |
Hospitals included in the program had higher baseline mortality. |
| HQID[3] 2007 |
207 hospitals that voluntarily participated in the HQID project among 613 hospitals that voluntarily participated in a CMS Hospital Quality Alliance (HQA)project for public reporting of outcomes U.S.A. |
Bonuses that averaged $71,960 per year per hospital (for two years) | No intervention | 30-day mortality after 6 years for admitted for pneumonia, heart failure, acute myocardial infarction or coronary artery bypass | 11.8% | 11.6% | |
