If behavior-change services are to be offered routinely in primary care practices, providers
must be appropriately compensated. Estimating what is spent by practices in providing
such services is a critical component of establishing appropriate payment and was the
objective of this study. Primary care practices must spend money to address their patients’ unhealthy behaviors—at
least $1860 to initiate systematic approaches and $58 monthly per participating patient to
implement the approaches routinely. Until primary care payment systems incorporate
these expenses, it is unlikely that these services will be readily available.
