Payment Reform - Capacity Building and Incentive Funds
Find your answers here!Payment Reform Rate Structure
SAPCs payment reform capacity building and incentive funds is developed to support providers in transitioning from predominantly cost-based practices to fee-for-service system that adapts new organizational practices,
uses of data in decision-making, and prioritizes service delivery and volume.
Success in this effort supports smooth transition to value-based reimbursement (VBR) model.
Foundational to this effort, is SAPCs development of tiered, actuarially-sound rates that are structured based on the number of different levels of care an agency offers (see image to the right). This rate structure offers higher rates for higher tiers and is imbued throughout the capacity building and incentive funds described below and supports efforts to streamline care coordination by increasing continuums of care within agencies.

Incentive Programs
The Los Angeles County Department of Public Health’s Bureau of Substance Abuse Prevention and Control (SAPC) designed an incentive metrics package to begin to move the specialty
SUD system away from volume-based and towards a value-based reimbursement structure.
Funds are paid after achieving a performance metric. Metrics are designed to validate whether provider agencies deliver, and patients receive,
outcome-focused services that translate to value-based care.
