Can fixed payments transform the health care industry?

Can fixed payments transform the health care industry?

This has the risk of "bundled payments" being the new ACO or MCO.  But, it does point out that total health care costs for individuals and the "system" involve much more than the insurance companies pay attention to.  Incentives to keep folks in nursing homes is just as bad as incentives to restrict access to care under and ACO.
