  • Title: The value of a safety-net hospital case example: Denver Health.
    Author: Krantz MJ, Brown CA, Mehler PS.
    Journal: J Ambul Care Manage; 2013; 36(3):178-86. PubMed ID: 23748264.
    Abstract:
    Mergers in the health care are common. The safety nets are being left out, because the operating margins of these hospitals are too thin. The Accountable Care Act (ACA) may increase the financial challenges of safety nets. This is because uncompensated care disbursements such as funding of the disproportionate share hospitals are scheduled to phase down as ACA implementation proceeds. If the safety nets became financially unstable, this would destabilize the local hospital market. Denver Health has gained national recognition for its innovations and excellent quality of care. This article will promote an awareness that safety-net hospitals should be considered for collaborations.
