Almost two-thirds of global health leaders surveyed by the Health Research Institute of PricewaterhouseCoopers thought the performance of their country’s health system was good or very good. However, less than 40 percent gave the payment system a grade of good or better. Those findings are among many others outlined in the new report You Get What You Pay For: A Global Look at Balancing Demand, Quality, and Efficiency in Healthcare Payment Reform.
To better understand how to structure payment incentives and to learn what other countries are doing, the Health Research Institute of PricewaterhouseCoopers conducted more than 30 in-depth interviews with leaders representing hospitals, government organizations, and the business community in more than 10 countries and conducted a global survey of more than 200 healthcare executives from 20 countries. The report provides a global perspective on the problems nations face and the solutions that are being implemented in response.
