Because they are not over or under provided, patients enjoy receiving the right care at the right time for the right price. As a result, they avoid paying unnecessarily high costs including enrollee contributions, co-pays and deductibles and they also reduce the need for unnecessary and sometimes costly tests.
Physicians reap additional value because by doing what is right for the patient, and by providing better outcomes for plan purchasers, the demand for UOP physicians increases. Furthermore, physicians in the UOP network have access to several services that help reduce practice costs and operational expenses.
Healthcare purchasers achieve their mission to deliver the right care by a responsible physician-based organization. Ultimately, purchasers see less clinical variation and more predictable outcomes, which improve care for the patient and also minimizes unnecessary healthcare costs.
