IMPACT Model - Innovative, Motivational, and Collaborative Approach for Cost Optimization and Quality-Oriented Results in Health Insurance and Reimbursement Strategy
Year: 2025
Type: article
Abstract: The challenges in healthcare today—ranging from aging populations and workforce shortages to complex reimbursement systems and strained relationships between insurers and providers—highlight the urgent need for innovation. Traditional models like Diagnose-related-grouping (DRG) and fee-for-services (FFS) struggle with flexibility, regional adaptability, and aligning incentives without hidden costs. Meanwhile, the focus on healthy life expectancy as a key health indicator is shifting reimbursement priorities toward outcomes rather than service volume.
