Financial incentivisation


Payment by Results / Tariff

One payment for an operation funds everything.


History of Best Practice Tariff

“From patient notes to pound

notes”


Financial Incentivisation

Four years ago;

Approach to BADS by the NHS PbR Team

“How do we provide appropriate payment for Day Surgery activity?”

• Reduce tariff based on reduced cost?

• No... Enhance tariff as a financial incentive


Laparoscopic Cholecystectomy: ‘Best Practice’ Tariff

2009:

Day case: £1365

In-patient: £1365

For 2010-11: Day case: £1694 In-patient: £1369


Day Case Incentivisation

Breast Surgery:

Mastectomy, Axillary Clearance / SNB

ENT:

Septoplasty/Tonsillectomy

Gynaecology:

Incontinence Surgery

General Surgery:

Cholecystectomy / Hernia Repair

Orthopaedics:

Dupuytren’s, Subacromial decompression, “Bunion” ops


Impact

• Additional reimbursement of ~£300 more if the procedure is carried out as a planned day case.

• Books “balanced” by over-reimbursing for day surgery and underfunding inpatient care.

• Perverse incentive for Clinical Commissioning Groups in the future?
