1 Bundled Payment: The Next Step in Improving Quality and Reducing Cost Rita E. Numerof, Ph.D. President Overview The U.S. healthcare industry is currently undergoing what will ultimately be a radical transformation, driven by unsustainable cost increases, increased regulation, and shifting power relationships among payers, providers, physicians, and patients. While virtually all stakeholders agree with the overall objective of healthcare reform -- achieving better health outcomes at lower cost -- there are many different views on how best to achieve it. Bundled pricing is an innovation being implemented by market leaders that promises to address this dilemma. Deceptively simple sounding, this radically different approach to pricing and risk brings its own unique challenges. Organizations considering a bundled pricing approach will need to understand the requirements for successful implementation. As important, they'll need to start planning now to avoid the "stealth" downside risk of bundled pricing -- commoditization. 2 Copyright 2011, St. Louis, MO
