Abstract: A review of the recent literature (mainly American) on the concept and implementation of pay-for-performance (P4P) and value-based purchasing (V-BP) systems in health care has been elaborated in the article. The aim of these systems is to increase effectiveness - provision of high quality health care services at a reasonable cost. Development of medical standards and information systems, recording medical procedures and achieved health effects are among the basic conditions for implementation of P4P or V-BP like systems. The experience from abroad shows that the success of these systems depends on a proper selection of assessment criteria (evidencebased actions, fully controlled by providers, various) as well as a proper relationship between payments and the level and dynamics of the providers' implementation of the criteria. Therefore, health care requires a tight collaboration between management specialists and medical professionals at the construction stage as well as during the implementation and changes of the systems.
