Key Points - There is evidence that value-based reimbursement models can incentivise healthcare providers to reduce over-servicing, potentially resulting in a more efficient use of scarce resources. - Participants reported that salaried provider models conferred several key advantages over fee-for-service models, particularly in their ability to incentivise preventive and proactive care delivery. - Our findings suggest that salaried provider arrangements have the potential to improve primary prevention and multidisciplinary care, when compared with fee-for-service arrangements. However, the design and implementation of reimbursement models should be informed by meaningful consultation with providers, athletes and other key stakeholders.
