Abstract

In 2004, the United Kingdom invested $3.2 billion in a new program to reward general practitioners for the delivery of high-quality care. The authors examine longitudinal data on quality and report that the incentive program may have prompted a modest improvement in the quality of care for two of the three chronic conditions they studied.
