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.
How Capitation and Fee-for-Service Payments Work. The traditional system of health care is that of fee-for-service. A patient visits a doctor or healthcare facility, is evaluated and treated, and pays for what was done. Capitation arises as a form of insurance for groups of people, with the intent of spreading exposure (risk) of health care, thus reducing the average individual cost per patient.
