  • Identification of key variables affecting revenue and cost predictability.

    • Main Results:

    • Objective financial risk may decrease when transitioning to capitation from prospective payment.
    • Subjective financial risk can be substantial under capitation due to unpredictability.
    • Key factors for reducing subjective risk include population data, sufficient covered lives, cost reduction, and volume management.
