Cleve Killingsworth
Cleve L. Killingsworth is a former CEO of Blue Cross Blue Shield of Massachusetts.[1] There, he was dissatisfied with the results of pay for performance initiatives, in that he thought billions more of wasteful (and harmful) medical spending could be reduced with a new payment model.[2] In 2007, he set a 6 month deadline for his staff to come up with a new payment model, which was introduced as the alternative quality contract (AQC) to health care providers.[2]
Killingsworth's compensation from Blue Cross totaled $8.6 million in 2010, and is to total $2.7 million in 2011 and 2012 (in severance), prompting investigation by the Attorney General.[3]
