  • Title: Medicare risk contracting places new demands on physician group practices.
    Author: Stewart EE.
    Journal: Healthc Financ Manage; 1996 Sep; 50(9):80, 83, 85. PubMed ID: 10159981.
    Abstract:
    Physician group practices new to Medicare risk contracting face unfamiliar financial and practice imperatives. Financial imperatives include accepting capitation and the risks associated with it. Practice imperatives include adhering to critical paths and admission and discharge criteria. By familiarizing themselves with the risks and rewards of Medicare risk contracting, physician group practices can make more informed decisions about entering into such arrangements.
