About Pfizer Inc - Pfizer Inc, founded in 1849, is dedicated to better health and greater access to healthcare for people and their valued animals. Our purpose is helping people live longer, healthier, happier lives. Our route to that purpose is through discovering and developing breakthrough medicines; providing information on prevention, wellness, and treatment; consistent high-quality manufacturing of medicines, consumer products; and global leadership in corporate responsibility. Every day we help 38 million patients, employ more than 100,000 colleagues, utilize the skills of more than 12,000 medical researchers, and work in partnership with governments, individuals, and other payers for healthcare to treat and prevent illnesses, adding both years to life, and life to years.
"To drive major improvements, performance-based payments must exceed 10% of total provider income. Incentives of this magnitude can only be mobilized if they originate in payer savings.”
