Purpose of the Study:

  • To define four key managed care strategies: contracts, incentives, management, and medical necessity.
  • To analyze the significant impact these strategies have on the practice of nurse practitioners.
  • To provide practical insights for nurse practitioners to improve patient care within managed care.
