Assignment:
What forms of payment include provision for compensating services that take into account social determinants of health and specifically how are these forms of payment designed to include payment for taking into account the social determinants of health?
Consider these points while answering:
Value-based payment models can provide the financial flexibility and accountability that allow health care organizations to more easily address social determinants of health at the population level.
• VBP models - especially those with more advanced payment structures or with direct links to addressing social needs - can provide financial flexibility and accountability, which allows health care organizations to more easily address SDoH at the population level.
• VBP can be an important financing mechanism for social drivers of health services, which have chronic resource constraints.
