Abstract
Value-based (VB) models of care similar to CMS's TEAM have been developed and implemented in several countries. The purpose of this review was to examine the current state of international (VB) care models in terms of purpose, scale, scope, parameters, mechanics and where possible, limitations and successes in the context of TEAM. Methods: Targeted, mixed source review to identify international VB models relevant to spine surgery. Most, however, are in the early adoption stages and differ widely in scale and structure. However, by comparing TEAM to a Spine specific VB model in Stockholm, there are significant differences in philosophy that are built into the model design.
期刊介绍:
The Spine Journal, the official journal of the North American Spine Society, is an international and multidisciplinary journal that publishes original, peer-reviewed articles on research and treatment related to the spine and spine care, including basic science and clinical investigations. It is a condition of publication that manuscripts submitted to The Spine Journal have not been published, and will not be simultaneously submitted or published elsewhere. The Spine Journal also publishes major reviews of specific topics by acknowledged authorities, technical notes, teaching editorials, and other special features, Letters to the Editor-in-Chief are encouraged.
