Poland’s National Health Fund (NFZ) implements a new incentive and sanction system for primary care clinics.
System Objectives
The National Health Fund (NFZ) is introducing a new framework for primary care clinics (POZ). This system aims to incentivize improved performance and adherence to standards through financial rewards and penalties.
Clinics will be evaluated based on specific performance metrics to determine eligibility for bonuses or imposition of fines.
Implementation Details
The new rules mark a significant shift in how NFZ oversees and funds primary care services, directly linking clinic operations to financial outcomes.
Details regarding the exact metrics, assessment periods, and the scale of bonuses and penalties are expected to be outlined in forthcoming NFZ regulations.
