description U.S. Healthcare has developed a quality-based compensation model through which its primary care physicians, hospitals, and specialists can earn additional compensation based on the quality and cost-effectiveness of the care they provide to their patients.

In addition, the model aligns the incentives of U.S. Healthcare purchasers, participating providers, and members in order to provide high-quality, cost-effective care that maximizes patient outcomes.
