Payeriente

Payeriente is a term that refers to the practice of prioritizing the needs and preferences of payers, typically insurance companies or government programs, over those of the patient. This approach can lead to a focus on cost-effectiveness and coverage requirements, which may not always align with the best clinical outcomes for the patient. Payeriente can result in the use of less effective or more expensive treatments that are covered by insurance, rather than the most appropriate or cost-effective options for the individual patient. This phenomenon is often criticized for potentially compromising patient care and leading to disparities in healthcare quality. It is important to note that payeriente is not a universally accepted term, and its usage may vary among healthcare professionals and researchers. The concept is closely related to the broader issue of healthcare cost containment and the influence of third-party payers on clinical decision-making.
