Abstract:
As health care delivery organizations develop into integrated health care systems, new and significant challenges arise with respect to how such systems should be governed. This article explores several key governance issues that organizations are likely to encounter as they attempt to effect the transition from hospital or multihospital system governance arrangements to those appropriate for integrated systems.
