Onset of Pay-for-performance
Premier HQID: Did It Work?
Jha et al. NEJM 2012
+And the news is discouraging too…
Headlines over the past 5 years:
“Health Affairs article finds Medicare’s pay-for-
performance did not spur quality improvement”
“New NEJM Report: Pay-for-performance…a bust”
“Paying doctors for quality doesn’t work”
“Medicare’s policy did not reduce infection rates”
+What is the ACA doing for P4P?
A variety of new programs
Value-based purchasing
Hospital Readmissions Reduction Program
Hospital-Acquired Condition Reduction
Now: MACRA and MIPS
+ Will this work any better?
+ We have some evidence in

+What have we learned?
Incentives can move the needle
Simple measures
Narrowly focused
They can have unintended consequences
We need to understand the tradeoffs
Do they make care meaningfully better?
Jury remains out
+Let’s reframe
Old question: “Does pay-for-performance work?”
New question: “How do we get pay-for-performance to
work?”
+Incentives 2.0: What might it look like?
Bigger incentives?
Target a small number of outcomes?
Especially over the longer run
Across a broader set of measures
Structure it more simply
Play into intrinsic motivations
More nuanced approach to the safety net
