Consumer-driven health plans: design features to promote quality improvement
Benefits Q.
2004.
Abstract
The most prevalent form of consumer-driven health plans (CDHPs) presents risks in terms of the cost, quality and appropriate use of health care. This article identifies those risks and shows employers how they can reduce them without compromising the overall cost-control potential of CDHPs. A good CDHP strategy should work on both the demand and supply sides of the market.
