Exhibit 5. High Performance Health System Criteria for
Developing Options to Stabilize Spending Growth
• Set targets for total spending growth
• Pay for value to accelerate delivery system reform for better outcomes,
better care, at lower costs
• Address the systemwide causes of health spending growth―not just
federal health costs
• Align incentives for providers and consumers across public and
private payers
• Protect access and enhance equity, but also engage and inform
consumers
• Invest in information systems to guide action

Exhibit 7. Synergistic Strategy: Cumulative Savings, 2013–2023
Payment reforms to accelerate delivery system innovation ($1,333 billion)
• Pay for value: replace the SGR with provider payment incentives to improve care
• Strengthen patient-centered primary care and support care teams
• Bundle hospital payments to focus on total cost and outcomes
• Align payment incentives across public and private payers
Policies to expand and encourage high-value choices ($189 billion)
• Offer new Medicare Essential plan with integrated benefits through Medicare, offering
positive incentives for use of high-value care and care systems
• Provide positive incentives to seek care from patient-centered medical homes, care teams,
and accountable care networks (Medicare, Medicaid, private plans)
• Enhance clinical information to inform choice
Systemwide actions to improve how health care markets function ($481 billion)
• Simplify and unify administrative policies and procedures
• Reform malpractice policy and link to payment*
• Target total public and private payment (combined) to grow at rate no greater than GDP
per capita**
Notes: SGR = sustainable growth rate formula; GDP = gross domestic product.
* Malpractice policy savings included with provider payment policies.
** Target policy was not scored.
