Abstract:
Objective:To explore the difficulties and methods of value-based pricing of healthcare services,and to provide references for the price management of healthcare services in China.Methods:Based on the analysis of literature and policy,the operational methods of value-based pricing are clarified,and the international application experience of value-based pricing is reviewed.Comprehensive field research and interviews are conducted to analyze the difficulties in applying value-based pricing to healthcare services.Results:Currently,there are no mature theories and methods for value-based pricing of healthcare services,and there are also many practical difficulties in financing,payment,assessment and evaluation policies.Conclusion:In the future,it should consider incorporating service experience into the value framework independently of utility,and take"service utility"as the basis for pricing healthcare services,and select relevant indicators for measurement.At the same time,the price of healthcare services should take into account the willingness to pay of multiple parties,and stakeholders need to work closely together to form a consensus on value.
