    Journal: Healthc Financ Manage; 1998 Jul; 52(7):48-50. PubMed ID: 10180894.
    Abstract:
    Provider organizations interested in forming a Medicare PSO should first determine their market's readiness to accept a new Medicare risk product. How a Market might receive a new Medicare PSO depends on numerous factors. These factors include size and demographic characteristics of the Medicare Population; capitation rate; level of commercial and Medicare managed care enrollment; market concentration; provider supply, capabilities, and attitudes toward managed care; and prevalence of large employers and their level of interest in Medicare risk products.
