Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolPiet Stam is a health economist and econometrician with a PhD who has spent three decades shaping risk equalization and incentives in Dutch healthcare across academia, government advisory, and consulting. He currently leads the Talma Institute and heads its “Incentives in Healthcare” theme while serving on the Dutch Minister of Health’s long-standing taskforce on risk equalization. Piet co-founded boutique consultancies (SiRM and Equalis Strategy & Modeling), helped introduce the MHCG risk adjuster into the Dutch model, and co-created the national standard for measuring patient experience (CQI/PREM). His work blends rigorous empirical research, policy advising, and practical implementation—examples include value-based procurement with shared-savings contracts and financial/quality incentives for providers. Active in international networks (RAN) and university teaching since 2007, he is skilled at translating complex risk-adjustment theory into operational tools used by insurers and policymakers. An owner of a holding company and persistent contributor to national policy since the late 1990s, he brings rare continuity and cross-sector credibility to healthcare regulation and payment reform.
