The goal of value-based care payment arrangements is to transform clinical care practices by rewarding high-value care via changes in payment mechanisms. 

Currently, most payment for healthcare services is structured around fee-for-service (FFS) payment mechanisms. Under a FFS payment system, clinicians furnish care and providers are paid per service rendered. Many value-based payment models maintain the FFS payment structure, while providing incentives for providers to alter clinical care practices that improve outcomes and improve quality of care furnished.
