Key findings from the study include the following:
• Only five of 16 healthcare payors already implemented shared risk arrangements while several others were not yet operational.
• Some programs beginning with shared savings plan to move to shared risk, but others have no intention of evolving in this direction.
• The research revealed models of shared risk vary, and it is unlikely there will be a “one-size-fits-all” model.
• The findings suggest that both the public and private sectors will need to implement shared risk carefully and closely measure its impact to determine whether and how to employ it broadly.
