Abstract: Pay-for-quality initiatives struggle to deliver positive results. At the same time, a current demand is to orient these incentives on the "value" (i.e. the outcomes obtained in relation to the costs). The thesis developed in this article is different: more than a financial incentive on outcomes, it is an incentive for organizational efforts which appears to have to be privileged in order to improve P4P approaches; the quality of the result must be reasoned at the individual level of each patient without requiring a financial incentive. To support this thesis, we propose to analyze the topics related to P4P from a managerial perspective.
