Manag Care Strateg. 1997 Oct;5(10):113-5.
As PHOs and other similar organizations grow and meet their initial goals, they often find themselves needing large amounts of capital in order to take the organization to the next level. Some of these systems are looking to get this capital by partnering with publicly traded physician practice management companies (PPMC). Finding the right PPMC to partner with is largely a matter of weighing strengths and weaknesses so that the PPMC's strengths fill in the PHO's weaknesses and vice versa.
随着初级保健组织(PHOs)和其他类似组织的发展并实现其初始目标,它们常常发现自身需要大量资金才能将组织提升到新的水平。其中一些体系正寻求通过与公开上市的医师执业管理公司(PPMC)合作来获取这笔资金。找到合适的PPMC进行合作很大程度上在于权衡双方的优势与劣势,以便PPMC的优势能够弥补PHO的劣势,反之亦然。
