title: [Value-based care is implemented quickly – worthy successor to NPM?].
abstract: The international trend »value-based care« (VbC) started with a book by Porter and Olmsted Teisberg in 2006 followed by Porter's 7-point proposal for value-based reform of health care in 2009. VbC may have relevance for delimited, procedure-related health problems with a foreseeable course of development. Most health problems in health care, however, do not involve such delimited problems. VbC is probably not suited as a steering model for chronic health conditions or for multiple health problems. VbC is being rapidly introduced to steer health care without scientific evidence.
