DESCRIPTION:Reference-based pricing (RBP) is a cost-containment strategy us
 ed in healthcare and insurance to determine reimbursement rates for medica
 l services and procedures. Instead of using traditional fee schedules or n
 egotiated rates with healthcare providers\, RBP sets reimbursement rates b
 ased on a reference point\, often a benchmark or a percentile of what prov
 iders charge for a particular service. The RBP approach is typically emplo
 yed when there is limited or no existing agreement between the payer (e.g.
 \, an insurance company) and healthcare providers. Based on the measurable
  plan savings generated by RBP\, the marketplace has seen a dramatic rise 
 in popularity\, with RBP now being considered by 20% of self-funded employ
 ers\, up from 6% in 2016. Tom Wittick and Woody Waters will walk you throu
 gh the basics of the RBP mechanism and the details accompanying this platf
