These programs are established to reward providers of care for better results. They require the care-providing organizations have a system of accurate measurements to gauge performance (i.e., a hospital measuring readmission rates). If the organization achieves established goals set by a program sponsor, the organization receives an incentive payment. Organizations can also receive lower remunerations for poor outcomes.
