Blue Cross and Blue Shield of North Carolina said five health systems and physicians in its risk-based payment model have generated $153 million in cost savings and quality improvement during the past year. In January 2019, five health systems in North Carolina agreed to share risk under a new reimbursement model with BCBSNC. Under the model, called Blue Premier, payments to physicians and hospitals are tied to the value of services provided. Total payments to the health systems are based on their collective ability to manage cost of care and quality performance at their systems.
