  • Healthcare Management
  • Physician Organization

Background:

  • Research funded by the Center for Health Management Research (CHMR) and Center for Organized Delivery Systems (CODS).
  • Supported by the National Science Foundation's Industry-University Cooperative Research Center Program.
  • A 3-year initiative (1996-1999) involving 69 physician organizations and 14 organized delivery systems.

Purpose of the Study:

  • Identify factors associated with physician alignment in healthcare systems.

  • Comparison of study groups with national physician group data.
  • Characterization of organized delivery system size, scope, and financial data.

    • Main Results:

    • Study groups were larger and more likely to be multispecialty than US physician groups overall.
    • Organized delivery systems varied significantly in size, hospital affiliation, and revenue.
    • The research aimed to understand physician integration and its impact on care practices.

    Conclusions:

    • Physician alignment is crucial for effective healthcare system functioning.
    • Understanding alignment factors can improve the implementation of evidence-based practices.
