Through a summary of trends in P4P programs, as well as concise case studies from three well-respected health insurers Blue Cross Blue Shield of Michigan, HealthPartners, Inc. and Independent Health this book contains valuable insights you'll need to establish, or modify, your own P4P program.   In chapters authored by the plans themselves, Health Plan Pay-for-Performance Programs looks at such trends as P4P programs with specialist physicians and PPOs, P4P programs with hospitals and programs geared toward specific diseases.
