Value-Based Payment Models
In this month’s issue of Health Affairs, Marina Milad and coauthors conduct a systematic literature review of the quality, spending, and utilization effects of value-based payment models in the commercial insurance sector.

They find that four out of five studies show positive results for quality outcomes, and more than half show positive results for spending and utilization outcomes.

Milad and coauthors conclude by spelling out key implications for the future of commercial value-based payment.

“Success in improving quality, reducing spending, and improving appropriate utilization after a shift to greater risk-sharing is far from guaranteed,” the authors write.

They indicate that value-based payment models could be enhanced by benefit design structures and delivery system reforms.
