Abstract in brief

  • P4P schemes in low and middle-income countries (LMICs) are financial incentive programs for health workers or facilities, aiming to improve healthcare outcomes by linking pay to performance targets, but their design varies widely across different settings.
  • The authors developed a typology to categorize the different features of P4P schemes and conducted a systematic review of existing studies, finding 41 schemes in 29 LMICs that show significant variation in how these programs are structured.
  • The review also highlights that many studies do not thoroughly report key design features, making it difficult to understand what aspects of scheme design influence success, and encourages future research to adopt a consistent reporting framework based on the proposed typology.

Do you remember the @healtheconomics #P4P #ihea2019 session? @RoxanneKovacs, Tim Bowell-Jackson, @soerenrk (@DaCHE_SDU), @neha_s_singh and Jo Borghi narrow the gap @BioMedCentral : https://t.co/VykyumHeqv by investigating #P4P schemes in LMICs. Spoiler: It's heterogeneous! https://t.co/BTrCpAXRyc
