Examplesoffee-for-servicefee-for-service The physicians-contract-bound to one of the 19 health insurance agencies-are reimbursed on either afee-for-serviceor a flat-rate basis, depending on the service. From theCambridge English Corpus Consider solo primary care practitioners, paidfee-for-service, who examine patients, diagnose problems, prescribe medicine, provide simple treatment, and refer patients to specialists. From theCambridge English Corpus The main conclusion so far is that the provision of services must be uncoupled from thefee-for-service-based income system of specialists. From theCambridge English Corpus Physicians in such settings usually work as private practitioners and are paid by patients on afee-for-servicebasis. From theCambridge English Corpus Physicians entering the profession in the 21st century do not expect to practicefee-for-servicemedicine. From theCambridge English Corpus This could explain why more clinical providers, particularly doctors, than others supported thefee-for-servicemethod and the mixed method. From theCambridge English Corpus While the combined capitatedfee-for-servicesystem might create the best possible set of incentives, it is not the best instrument to control costs (22). From theCambridge English Corpus These policies created important vested interests in a pluralist financing structure and reinforced doctors' preferences forfee-for-servicepayment. From theCambridge English Corpus Yet another combination includes fixed global budgets, additional payments for the provision of more costly treatments, andfee-for-servicepayments (1). From theCambridge English Corpus Some countries pay their physicians primarily on afee-for-servicebasis, while others pay salaries. From theCambridge English Corpus A small, independent healthcare sector provides care on afee-for-servicebasis, with fees paid directly by patients or by private insurance reimbursement. From theCambridge English Corpus On the other hand, personnel paid on afee-for-servicebasis only intervene in home care. From theCambridge English Corpus Medical doctors are reimbursed on afee-for-servicebasis, and hospitals receive an annual ex-post budget for support of their activities. From theCambridge English Corpus Another marked problem is the juxtaposition offee-for-servicefor specialists with budgets for nursing and accommodation costs in hospitals. From theCambridge English Corpus Unlike thefee-for-servicereimbursement system, the capitation model removed the need for physicians to have direct contact with all patients accessing services in the practice.
