Value-based payment promotes better patient care, incentivizes health care delivery organizations to improve outcomes and lower costs, and can empower nurses: Part 2

In this Part 2 of our six-part series on value-informed nursing practice, (Yakusheva& Buerhaus, 2021) we discuss the core concepts underpinning value and the opportunities that the transition to value-based payment systems presents for patients, health care organizations, and nurses.

This series clarifies the meaning and implications of value-based payment and highlights the opportunities for nurses to improve patient care and gain empowerment.
