Policy-oriented research on improved physician incentives for higher value health care.
Policy makers (both public and private) are seeking ways to improve the value delivered within our health care system. To inform such policy changes, this paper identifies areas in which little is known about the effects of specific incentives (FFS, salary, etc.) on the two components of value: resource use and quality. Specific suggestions are offered focusing on fundamental "building block" studies.
