Paying for Quality and Coordination: Aligning Provider Payments With Global Goals
American Journal of Medical Quality, 07/21/09
Fuller RL et al. – Payment design can be used to identify units of service that are sufficiently narrow to give a transparent understanding of the type of care rendered but with the capacity for aggregation to describe the process as a whole.

Payment systems can use a building block approach for each of the 4 types of health care encounter so as to encourage improved coordination of health care services.
