PROGRAMS Physician Group Incentive Program

Launched in 2005, the Physician Group Incentive Program includes over 20,000 primary care and specialist physicians throughout Michigan in provider-led clinical quality improvement efforts.

The program connects approximately 40 physician organizations (representing these 20,000 physicians) statewide to collect data, share best practices and collaborate on initiatives that improve the health care system in Michigan.

Participating physician organizations are evaluated and rewarded on transformation of health care delivery, quality metric performance, and performance enablement – all efforts designed to improve the overall value of care delivered while reducing total cost of care.
