The Claim
Primary care physicians with higher annual patient visit volumes are more likely to support financial incentives for physicians and to prefer models that share incentives between physicians and patients, with 55% of high-volume physicians agreeing with physician incentives compared to 35% of lower-volume physicians (P < 0.01).
What the research says
Supports is higher
Support is ahead, but a single strong opposing study can change this.
These are independent scores, not a percentage. Higher-grade studies count more, so a single strong opposing study can outweigh several weaker ones.
Doctors who see more patients each year are more likely to like the idea of getting paid extra for good care — and they also prefer sharing those bonuses with their patients.
