A Healthy Blog » Payment Reform Commission Looks At Payment Systems:

"The Payment Reform Commission held its fourth meeting on Tuesday, February 24th. The Commission discussed episode-based payment models and evidence-based purchasing at length. Meeting materials are available here. Our full report is below the fold.

"Consultant Michael Bailit began the meeting by updating the Commission on feedback received from stakeholder input sessions. Bailit, Commissioner Iselin and Administration and Finance staff are conducting three rounds of meetings with stakeholders to gather feedback on the payment reform process."

This is a nice introduction to payment reform, including a section at the end discussing the potential uses of Comparative Effectiveness Research, and also of possible backlash against such work.
