Rhonda Medows, MD: 6 considerations before signing a
value-based payment contract 1. Understand the population. 2. Assess size of patient population. 3. Understand the provider network. 4. Limit the maximum claim denial rate. 5. Understand the differences between payers and the hospital's payer mix. 6. Assess the hospital's current patient care, services and interventions. Source: Becker's Hospital Review, August 23, 2019 |
