So in one of my classes, we were going through a lot of the different payment models. They talked about capitation (your standard "per-patient-per-month," where you receive a fixed amount per patient), predominately in the context of medical insurance, but there was also some talk that some insurers were looking at trying capitation with prescription coverage as well.
I cannot fathom how this would possibly work in real life, nor can I imagine that pharmacies would come out ahead in this type of model, but what do you guys think? Has anyone actually seen this from a pharmacy perspective?
