P4P programs continue to grow in popularity from 35 last year to 80 today. Healthcare Web Summit and the authors of the 2003 national study on provider pay for performance (P4P) programs, invite you to attend their upcoming national audio conference and web summit on 2004 study results. Twelve leading national organizations on quality and performance measurement expressed support for the study this year (see below).

This session will cover trends, measures used, implications, and valuable lessons learned from the experiences of 50 P4P sponsors (health plans, government, and employer coalitions). Faculty will also share insights on how P4P sponsors are leveraging their metrics for other strategic initiatives such as consumer transparency and tiered networks. 


Attendees will also receive the 2004 report. The study this year was sponsored by ViPS and Med-Vantage. Alphabetically, the studies' twelve supporting organizations are:

1. The Alliance Health Care Cooperative (the Alliance), Madison WI

2. American Medical Group Association (AMGA)

3. Bridges to Excellence

4. Florida Health Care Coalition

5. Foundation for Accountability (FACCT)

6. The IPA Association of America (TIPAAA)
