Risk-adjusted Payment and Performance Assessment for Primary Care

Arlene and I have been working on calibrating risk adjustment models for primary care for four years, and are happy that this work is finally being reflected in a major article in Medical Care in August 2012. The articles are already available online, and should be officially in print soon. The four editorials signal how controversial our approach has proven.
