The Impact of Bundled Payments on Quality and Cost of Care

The Impact of the Bundled Payments for Care Improvement Program on Quality and Costs of Care

Source: ClinicalTrials.gov · Last updated 20 Feb 2026

Brief summary (registry, in English)

Bundled payment is a new payment reform that encourages health care providers to improve quality and contain costs of care. These arrangements are being rapidly expanded across the country, but evidence about their impact are lacking. This study will use Medicare claims data to evaluate the effect of participation in a large Medicare bundled payment program on the quality and costs of care for common medical and surgical conditions.
