Managing Patient Demand in a Value-Based System.
Article in Annals of family medicine, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
The transition to value-based care requires primary care physicians develop new capabilities in managing health services demand in ambulatory care settings. This narrative draws from clinical experience in a value-based, capitated system to examine how traditional fee-for-service incentives and changing patient expectations increase health care utilization. The essay introduces a practical "3D" framework-Delegate, Defer, Direct-for managing health services demand while maintaining quality care. Clinical examples demonstrate how primary care physicians can leverage team-based care models, implement evidence-based visit frequencies for chronic conditions, and develop systematic approaches to guide appropriate care-seeking behavior. Successfully managing demand requires physician practice innovation and patient partnership, supported by policy changes enabling team-based care delivery. As health care systems increasingly adopt value-based payment models as part of health care delivery reform, skillfully managing demand will become crucial for delivering high-quality, sustainable primary care.
