The Valley Preferred Achieving Clinical Excellence® (ACE) incentive plan is a performance-based compensation model designed to provide member physicians with clear benchmarks based upon nationally established pathways, protocols and procedures to meet the Triple Aim (Better care. Better health. Better cost). The incentives for primary and specialty care physicians are designed to focus on quality measures, financial outcomes and the patient experience.

Choosing Wisely®, an initiative of the American Board of Internal Medicine (ABIM) Foundation, and promoted by Valley Preferred, aims to promote conversations between clinicians and patients by helping patients choose care that is:

-Supported by evidence
-Not duplicative of other tests or procedures already received
-Free from harm
-Truly necessary

Choosing Wisely recommendations will help guide measurement categories. Please note: Choosing Wisely principles are not quality measures but rather guidelines to help patients understand their care. 

Program Components:

Participation:  Paid quarterly, physicians are encouraged to participate in Valley Preferred initiatives promoting education, outreach and care coordination.

Quality and Efficiency:  Paid bi-annually, incentive payments are provided to physician practices that meet or exceed the defined quality and efficiency goals.
