Abstract

Introduction
Healthcare systems are developed in imperfect scenarios, in which there are constant failures (uncertainty, information asymmetry, agency relationship problem, and supply-induced demand). These failures, based on the imperfection of the sector, determine the relationships and incentives between the actors. It is within this context that payment mechanisms regulate aspects of the system behavior and incentives, acting as instruments for the purchasing of health care from providers, mediated by health insurance on behalf of users.

Objective
To characterize the basic elements of most frequent payment mechanisms to help providers in their relationship with payers.

Methods
A review of the evidence was conducted in PubMed, Google, Google Scholar, and strategic snowball selection. Payment mechanisms consist of three classical microeconomics variables, fixed or variable: price, quantity, and expense. Time dimensions are used to analyze their attributes and effects. Different mechanisms emerge from the combination of these variables.

Results
Among the most used are: Fee-For-Service, Global Budget, Bundled Payments, Diagnosis-Related Groups, Per-capita, Performance Pay, and Risk-Sharing Agreements. A fourth has also gained importance: Financial Risk.

Conclusions
Payment mechanisms are essential to link health efforts with clinical practice. They make it possible to regulate relationships between insurers, providers, and users, which, depending on the architecture of the mechanism, can become beneficial or hinder the fulfillment of the objectives of the health system.

Introducción
Los sistemas de salud se desarrollan en ámbitos complejos y con fallas constantes (incertidumbre, asimetría de información, problema de relación de agencia e inducción de demanda). Estas fallas determinan las relaciones e incentivos entre los actores y se basan en la imperfección del sector. Frente a ello, los mecanismos de pago regulan aspectos del comportamiento e incentivos del sistema, participando como instrumentos de compra de atenciones de salud a prestadores, mediados por los seguros de salud en representación de los usuarios.

Objetivo
Caracterizar los elementos básicos de las tipologías más frecuentes de los mecanismos de pago con el propósito de para apoyar la labor de los prestadores en su relación con pagadores.

Métodos
Se condujo una revisión dirigida de la evidencia en PubMed, Google, Google Scholar y selección estratégica en bola de nieve. Los mecanismos de pago están conformados por tres variables microeconómicas clásicas fijas o variables: precio, cantidad y gasto; y dimensiones temporales utilizadas para analizar sus atributos y efectos. De la combinación de estas variables surgen distintos mecanismos.

Resultados
Entre los más utilizados se describen: pago por servicio, presupuesto global, Bundled Payments, grupos relacionados de diagnóstico, per cápita, pago por desempeño y acuerdos de riesgo compartido. Dentro de sus variables ha cobrado importancia una cuarta, el riesgo financiero.

Conclusiones
Los mecanismos de pago resultan esenciales para concatenar esfuerzos sanitarios con la práctica clínica. Permiten regular relaciones entre seguros, prestadores y usuarios. Dependiendo de la arquitectura del mecanismo, estas pueden tornarse beneficiosas o entorpecer el cumplimiento de los objetivos del sistema sanitario.
