[Agency] AHRQ [Project Title] Bundled Episode Payment and Gainsharing Demonstration Project [Institution] Integrated Healthcare Association [Amount] $0 [Summary] The proposed project addresses an IOM research priority-strategies and interventions for improving care by redesigning payment-by proposing a real-world demonstration of bundled episode payment for several IOM priority conditions, including arthritis and non-traumatic joint disorders and cardiovascular disease. Results of the demonstration in terms of both clinical quality and costs will be rigorously evaluated in comparison to current payment mechanisms. Expansion of a current pilot in Los Angeles and Orange Counties to patient populations and delivery systems across the State of California will provide valuable information on the scalability of bundled episode payments in commercial populations that may be generalized to national efforts to implement payment reform.
