Health care is undergoing a transformation. As the industry becomes increasingly complex, organizations must develop a better understanding of what drives physician performance in order to stay ahead of the curve.
Engaging providers in the transition from volume- to value-based care is critical, and aligning physician and APP compensation with an organization’s mission and strategic performance objectives is necessary to drive change and deliver long-term, sustainable results.
