Abstract

The objective of this briefing is to summarise concisely the evidence on incentives that encourage providers of health care to follow guidance on best practice, particularly where that guidance requires the use of specific medicines or other health technologies. We define incentives broadly, to include both monetary and non-monetary rewards to adhere to best
practice.

Keywords: health care, incentives, literature review
