Outcomes-Based Healthcare

Outcomes-Based Healthcare focuses on paying for healthcare services based on the results they achieve, rather than the volume of treatments provided. It emphasizes delivering real improvements in a patient's health, such as better managing a condition or reducing symptoms. This approach encourages providers to prioritize effective, efficient care that leads to meaningful health benefits. Essentially, it aligns incentives to improve patient outcomes rather than just increasing procedures or visits, aiming for higher quality care, better patient satisfaction, and more responsible use of healthcare resources.
