Abstract
In the near future, almost all US health care professionals—doctors, nurses and members of the ancillary disciplines, including chaplains—likely will be paid based on quality of performance, i.e., pay for performance (P4P), by achieving evidence based, best practice, desired outcomes that have a positive impact on institutional bottom lines. This article describes the context, implications for chaplaincy, progress to date and next steps for professional chaplaincy to survive and thrive with P4P.
