  • Title: Capitation: a strategy that could have a future.
    Author: Levine R.
    Journal: Healthc Financ Manage; 2001 Apr; 55(4):41-3. PubMed ID: 11300001.
    Abstract:
    Capitation can be successful if hospitals, physicians, and payers share risk to align financial incentives to control costs. Payers need to help hospitals that accept risk to achieve success under managed care agreements. Many failures in hospital capitation might be preventable if hospitals improve internal operations and commit themselves to making the changes necessary for successful risk-based payment.
