Many strategies have been suggested to accomplish successful physician integration, including stock ownership in a for-profit entity created by the health system, sharing in the cost efficiencies caused by changing practice patterns, and compensation attached to service and access standards. One thing that executives overlook goes beyond financial concerns and yet hits at the heart of what is important to most physicians. That is maintaining their ability to make decisions regarding their own practice environment both clinically and administratively. United Health describes its physician-administrator team model, developed to enhance the physician integration process.
为实现医生的成功整合,人们提出了许多策略,包括在医疗系统创建的营利性实体中持有股份、分享因改变执业模式而带来的成本效益,以及与服务和准入标准挂钩的薪酬。高管们忽视的一点超出了财务问题的范畴,却触及了对大多数医生来说至关重要的核心。那就是保持他们在临床和行政方面对自身执业环境做出决策的能力。联合健康描述了其为加强医生整合过程而开发的医生-管理人员团队模式。
