Who is Doing What with Pay for Performance in Health in Developing Countries: A Snapshot of Findings from an Online Survey
Presentation given by Alix Beith, Catherine Connor, Rena Eichler, Natasha Hsi, and Katie Senauer at the Ronald Reagan Building November 30, 2009, as part of the Strengthening Health Systems Presentation Series.
Pay for performance (or P4P) initiatives transfer money or material goods to either providers or recipients of health services IF they take actions to improve health or increase utilization or quality of health services. In recent years, P4P has gained increased international attention as a potential mechanism to improve developing country maternal and child health outcomes. However, few ongoing experiences have been documented. In May 2009, the Health Systems 20/20 launched an electronic survey to begin to systematically document "who is doing what" in P4P for health. Join us for a snapshot of findings.
