Capitation is a payment arrangement for health care service providers such as physicians or nurse practitioners. It pays a physician or group of physicians a set amount for each enrolled person assigned to them, per period of time, whether or not that person seeks care.
Episode-based payments cover an episode of illness or medical condition, such as a heart attack, hip replacement or diabetes. The term global payment includes capitation, most frequently used to pay health maintenance organizations (HMOs) on a per-member, per-month basis for all care covered by the HMO plan. Some important differences exist between the current concept of global payments and traditional capitation, how-ever.
