All-payer rate setting is a financing model under which all third parties pay the same price for hospital services.[1] It can be used to increase the market power of payers (such as private and/or public insurance companies) to mitigate inflation in health care costs. All-payer characteristics are found in the health systems of France, Germany, Japan, and the Netherlands.[2] The US state of Maryland also uses such a model.[1]
