Prospective payment system

A prospective payment system (PPS) is a term used in the United States to refer to several payment methodologies in which medical insurance reimbursement is determined in advance, using predetermined rates that are generally adjusted for factors such as case mix, geography, and facility characteristics, rather than the actual costs incurred for a specific service.
