I thought all capitation was about fixed payments per member.

Yeah, limiting risk makes it less attractive for providers, totally!

A percent-of-premium arrangement is definitely not the most common type of capitation.

I vaguely recall that capitation usually involves a set dollar amount per member, but I can't remember if that applies to percent-of-premium specifically.

I keep mixing up the definitions of capitation types, so I’m uncertain if limiting risk makes it less attractive to providers.

This is a tricky one. I know percent-of-premium is a type of capitation, but I can't recall the specifics of how it differs from the other options. I'll have to review my notes and try to reason through the differences.

Okay, I remember learning about capitation arrangements in class. I believe a percent-of-premium setup is where the provider gets a percentage of the premium instead of a set dollar amount per member. That sounds like it would transfer risk to the provider.

This question seems pretty straightforward. I think the answer is D - a percent-of-premium arrangement transfers some of the risk from the health plan to the provider.

I think option C is also a good choice, setting reimbursement at a specific dollar amount per plan member can be beneficial.

Option A seems tempting, but I don't think it's the most common type of capitation. I'm going to go with option D, it makes the most sense to me.

I think option B is the correct answer. Percent-of-premium arrangements transfer some of the risk to the provider, making it less attractive when there are provisions to limit that risk.
