Abstract
This paper presents a theoretical model of an altruistic provider's response to an intervention that makes his performance rating more accessible to patients. We find that the provider exerts more effort; furthermore, a low-altruism provider increases effort more than a high-altruism provider. The effect of the intervention on the social surplus is also investigated.
