components called Configuration, Attribution, Scoring, Calculation of Payout and Payout. In each step there
will be a human interaction to review and confirm the performance of a provider. Rating process is designed
to obtain a better representation of payouts for provider performance and this will be funded through the
physician fee schedule budget.
