What is a Clinical ARP?
A clinical ARP is a physician compensation model that provides an alternative to the fee-for-service (FFS) payment method. It compensates physicians for providing a set of clinical services at defined facilities to a target patient population. Clinical ARPs can help to align physician compensation incentives with overall health system objectives. For some physicians, simply being paid differently can enable them to deliver services in a manner better suited to them and their patients.
