The major task of this paper is to develop hypotheses about voluntary sharing arrangements (SAs) from a plausible economic analysis of the hospital industry. The second task of the paper is to review some emerging evidence about SAs. Our research suggests that some SAs could or actually do reduce hospital costs to the community. However, there are reasons which indicate that cost reduction is neither a necessary nor a sufficient result for the success of many SAs.
本文的主要任务是通过对医院行业进行合理的经济分析，提出关于自愿共享安排（SAs）的假设。本文的第二个任务是回顾一些关于共享安排的新证据。我们的研究表明，一些共享安排能够或实际上确实降低了社区的医院成本。然而，有理由表明，成本降低对于许多共享安排的成功而言既非必要条件也非充分条件。
