  • Title: Specialty contact capitation.
    Author: Frank C, Roeder R.
    Journal: J Health Care Finance; 1999; 25(3):17-21. PubMed ID: 10094053.
    Abstract:
    Contact capitation is an emerging new payment method for risk contracts that aligns incentives among physicians, protects individual physicians from their colleagues' less efficient practice patterns, and allows physicians to share in the rewards of their own clinical effectiveness. Contact capitation is working in a variety of settings and developing a track record as a payment method to help ailing independent physician associations, physician-hospital organizations, health plans, and other risk-bearing entities.
