This week, we published a new Considering Health Spending Research Brief
<[link removed]>
focusing on value-based payment as a tool to address excess US health
spending.
The brief explores top findings from the literature about value-based
payment. Key takeaways from the research include:
* More than half of health care payments in the US are still based on
fee-for-service.
* Savings attributable to ACOs range from just less than 1 percent to
just more than 6 percent of per person spending.
* The effects of bundled payments vary across procedures and patient
populations.
* Research on savings from capitation is limited.
The Health Affairs nonpartisan Council on Health Care Spending and Value
<[link removed]>
studies excessive health spending in the US and recommends strategies to
address it.
This research brief is one in a series that provides snapshots of key
literature that informed the council's inquiry into health
spending drivers and interventions.
