Policy challenges and innovative analyses of payment for performance in health care

Call for papers for: Journal of Health Organization and Management

There has been a vast amount of publications based on the results of payment for performance worldwide, but the majority of them focused on a specific country or on countries from the same region or level of income. We have also witnessed the development of process analyses related to payment for performance based on a single country or group of countries in Africa. Therefore, we do not know yet how policy challenges related to payment for performance occur in different contexts in the world, and from the perspective of comparative and cross-country learning, and in-depth country analyses in most countries. For instance, the effects that policy challenges have had in the implementation, design or evaluation [but not only] of payment for performance have not been understood from an international viewpoint. The adoption of innovative approaches dealing with varied factors and forms of analysis would enable the generation of new evidences regarding policy challenges in payment for performance.

This special issue of Journal of Health Organization Management will gather together papers dealing with policy challenges and innovative analyses of payment for performance programmes (or performance-based financing programmes) in primary and secondary health care, in diverse health systems around the world. Papers will consider varied types of policy challenges including paradoxes and political alternatives (such as gaming and cheating), policy capacity (political, analytical and organisational/managerial capacity), practitioners’ and health teams’ motivations and inter-actions. From the perspective of health systems, this special issue will consider how payment for performance can affect, for instance, health systems’ main building blocks or components, such as leadership and workforce. We invite submissions using innovative types of analyses and methods including formulation/design and implementation studies, systems thinking and system strengthening, qualitative and mixed methods research, process tracing and fuzzy-set qualitative comparative analyses, realist reviews or qualitative evidence synthesis, and comparative and case studies.

Anticipated themes for submissions include, but are not limited to:

Comparative analysis of payment for performance across countries with different and same level of income
Empirical studies focusing on the formulation/design and implementation of payment for performance programmes
Paradoxes and challenges involved in the formulation/design and implementation of P4P/PBF (from political, organizational and health system perspectives)
Influence or impact of payment for performance policy process on health systems and strengthening
Policy learning from different phases/stages of payment for performance programmes in the same country, from countries in the same region or different regions
Policy processes exploring how countries have moved away from clinical indicators to a more quality improvement focused approach

Submission Information

Deadline for submissions: 31st September 2020

Documentos do Previne Brasil em Ingles - Prevent Brazil Programme - Documents and slides in English

Tue, 25 Feb 2020 10:00:00 -0300

We have translated into English the main documents of the Prevent Brazil programme, as well as the slides that introduces the programme.

The first file included the Ordinances/laws (and Questions and answers section) regarding the new Brazilian P4P scheme, Prevent Brazil (Previne Brasil), which are:

- The first ordinance institutes the programme in November 2019

- The second one from Dec/2019 details the indicators to be target

- Q&A details novelties and relations/or not with the previous P4P (PMAQ) and forms of funding.

We thank Maria Barretos (master researcher at PPG-UFG) for the English translation of the material.

Virtual Roundtable- PAYMENT FOR PERFORMANCE PROGRAMMES IN PRIMARY CARE IN ENGLAND AND BRAZIL: How Can Brazil Learn from the English QOF?

Sun, 29 Dec 2019 16:21:54 -0300

This seminar will now take place as virtual roundtable on 1st October at 3pm (UK time).

Via Zoom – Live on https://www.facebook.com/politicshealth/

15th September 2020, 13:00-17:00, University of London Senate House (1^st Floor, Room G3), Malet Street, Bloomsbury, London WC1E 7HU

AIMS OF THE SEMINAR AND DISCUSSIONS

This event is supported by a British Academy Newton Advanced project studying the formulation and implementation process of a Brazilian payment for performance programme (The PMAQ) and its impact on performance drivers and system strengthening. Results show that PMAQ was not highly successful in terms of workforce and leadership strengthening due, for instance, to lack of knowledge, motivation, participation and feedback at the frontline of primary care in Brazilian municipalities. Given the fact that Brazil has launched a new pay for performance programme (in mid-November 2019) inspired in the English “Quality and Outcome Framework” (the QOF), this event consists of an opportunity for policymakers, researchers and general audience to discuss payment for performance programmes in both countries, taking into account their similarities and distinctiveness in primary care.

A main comparative question to be discussed is: How can lessons from England be transferred to Brazil? The seminar is organised in three sessions. The English QOF will be discussed in the first session, considering the development of and changes in the QOF during the decades. The second session will discuss the main guidelines of the new Brazilian programme with respect to its payment for performance component, as well as lessons related to challenges in the Brazilian primary care scenario and lessons extracted from the previous pay performance programme (The PMAQ). The final session will suggest variables- and case-driven comparative analyses of primary care and payment for performance in PHC in both countries and extract illustrative and synthesis lessons on how could Brazil possibly learn from the English QOF.

Specific questions guiding discussions

In the first session we will be discussing QOFs policymaking and implementation process during the decades, trying to understand how changes, for instance, in policy relevant issues and indicators, as well as motivation/engagement at the frontline has taken place. Among the QOF-related questions that will be discussed and could be used to guide the monitoring and evaluation process of the new Brazilian programme are: why has the number of QOF indicators been reduced? Why and how qualitative improvement indicators are now being considered as an important shift in the process? What is the role to be placed or taking place by the network of GPSs and to what extent it might impact policymaking? Can we say that we might be witnessing a change in the policymaking process related to the QOF? What are the main changes taken place in GPs motivations during the decades, and how did they happen? What are the main political/ policy concerns related to the future of QOF in England?

Relevant questions to be asked from the Brazilian side might be: What are the main new changes/strategies planned in the new programme (Prevent Brazil) in order to avoid the same issues happened during PMAQ’s implementation? How will Prevent Brazil try to improve policy feedback and engagement of municipal and frontline health workers in the policymaking process? Considering that the new payment for performance evaluation is supposed to take place and change every four months, what are the strategies planned to monitor the implementation and provide realistic evidences for change? How is Brazil planning to disseminate the logics and knowledge regarding payment for performance to municipalities and front liners? Will evaluation be based only on quantitative indicators, or are there any plans to follow the implementation process and effectively engage front liners? How is Brazil willing to learn from the English case by including qualitative indicators to improve primary care?

It is expected that this seminar will shed lights on how Brazil could promote future analyses and changes in its new programme, at the policymaking, implementation and research realms.
