Founders hold the future of integrated provider organizations

Med Interface. 1995 Jun;8(6):78-80.

Abstract

Success of an integrated delivery system will be based on a common understanding of the new business of integrated care delivery and the creation of a stable and organized provider structure. Physicians' income will be based on the efficiency and success of integrated provider organizations--how well they manage patients and how well providers work with their peers to promote high-quality care while managing the cost of care and its utilization.
