fee for service
Pay per procedure
Fee for service is a payment model where each individual service rendered is billed separately, rather than bundled into a flat rate or subscription.
The term appears most often in healthcare, where doctors and hospitals charge for each procedure, test, or visit: Critics argue that fee-for-service incentivizes unnecessary treatments.
The model contrasts with capitation or value-based care arrangements.
