Being reimbursed based
on outcome improvements
is now a reality

CZ, a key national insurance has put in place a new reimbursement model with a fixed price per patient (70%) and with a bonus fee (30%) based on the patient adherence, the patient satisfaction (which counts for 50% of the weight) and provider’s capacity to bring innovation to the patient (namely personalisation of care). This value payment model now benefits the 12 000 sleep apnea patients of VitalAire, with the ambition to spread it with other key HC insurance players and bring value to more patients.
