Here's a challenge to conventional wisdom that will change the way you think about capitation. This hands-on resource is a collection of articles detailing the most advanced methods used by leading healthcare operational experts on how to provide high-quality care at less cost; manage financial risk more efficiently; design operational, clinical and information systems to meet the needs of patients, practitioners and managed care organizations; structure financial incentives to promote successful collaborations and make the transition from fee-for-service to risk-sharing arrangements. You'll find practical examples of how to build the trust necessary to create win-win solutions to problems that arise between competing yet interdependent interests of the various stakeholders. Edited by Peter Boland, PhD, and based on a "best practices" approach, each of the articles in the book illustrate compensation methodologies that have been successfully implemented with the support of physicians and hospitals.
