Text is from Colombia:
Las modalidades como el pago por evento, capitación, paquetes de servicios u otras formas de relación comercial, generan desbalance financiero tanto en los prestadores como en los aseguradores, modificando el flujo de caja y la capacidad financiera de los prestadores, afectando directamente a la población objetivo.
I understand that the phrase "pago por evento" refers to payment for any healthcare service (an appointment, a surgery, a vaccine application...) but can't find any equivalent phrase in English. Thanks in advance!

: Too broad. 'Payment per event' is a specific term used in the context of a fixed indemnity plan and mentioned in reference to the Affordable Care Act.
