Different payment models, such as fee-for-service, capitation, and value-based care, impact nursing practice:
1. Fee-for-Service: Providers are paid for each service rendered. This model can lead to increased workload and focus on quantity over quality. 2. Capitation: Providers receive a fixed amount per patient regardless of the number of services provided. This model encourages cost-efficiency and preventive care. 3. Value-Based Care: Providers are rewarded for delivering high-quality care and improving patient outcomes. This model emphasizes the importance of effective and coordinated care.
